Font will not load from file while injected

[The Dab]

" font.loadFromFile(filename.ttf); " returns false. The reason is because I am using working in a dynamic link library (DLL) instead of a console application. I put the font file in the project directory as well as in the process directory of the application I am injecting into. I put the exact code in a console application and it worked. I am using visual studio 2017, is there any way I can link it in project properties, or is there a function I am missing?

You should check what is the current working directory at the time of loading the font, it’s not necessarily the directory of your executable.

It is, I right click on the solution name, then "open folder in file explorer", it brings me right to the folder where my font is located.

And for reference, Visual Studio's default working directory when executing is the project directory

(the setting is <right-click on project> -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> Debugging -> Working Directory)
