Right click on file > Properties (or select the file and press F4 ;

Under Build Action , select Content ;

Under Copy to Output Directory , select either Copy always or Copy if newer .

    var imageStream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("MeuArquivo.txt");
}
catch
{
    throw new Exception("Erro acessando arquivo de resource.");
}
