You can try my earlier solution. However as per your scenario you can also try to create a self extracting executable from the below link (I didn't tried but might work) and in that you can create a password protected zip that contains your exe and encrypted video file. The self extracted exe runs your executable and when user enters correct password just extract the video from zip file and play to your media. https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/339768/Flexible-Self-Extracting-Application-in-Csharp-Pro

If I got your point, are you asking to create an exe file that contains your video file and the format you want is .exe, whenever user click the exe, it prompt user to enter password-> after that he should be able to play video

Am I right? or want something else

Hey

There isn't any tool to protect video files, alternatively you can make your program like below example:
1. Take a video file (eg file size = 5MB)
2. Create an application and increase a single byte of the video (eg. -2)
3. By applying step 2, a user can't open video file.
4. Prompt user to enter password to play the video
5. When user entered the correct password then load the video file and remove that single byte from the video and play in your player.
This is not the perfect way but you can get some idea to build one.

Good Luck
