I'm trying to insert a local image in my CSHTML file. The image is located in the same folder as the executable. I have tried the following, but none of these options work:
<img src="image.png" alt="Image" />
<img src="~/image.png" alt="Image" />
<img src="@Url.Content("~/image.png")" alt="Image" />
However, absolute paths and external URLs work perfectly:
<img src="C:/fake/path/image.png" alt="Image" />
<img src="www.example.com/image.png" alt="Image" />
This is how executing the app looks in cmd, I tried copying the same image to C:
, C:/API
and C:/API/win-x64
, just in case, still nothing (there are no subfolders in C:/API/win-x64
).
Does anyone know why is this happening? I don't want to use absolute paths.

To access static files in the Asp.net core, you must place them in the wwwroot folder
According to the image above, the image link is as follows
<img src="/uploadedFiles/images/img_sample_five.jpg" />
