Resources.Load not working in standalone build

Question

Hi

I have problem with Resources.Load. It works fine in editor but when using standalone build value returned by this method is null. What can cause this kind of problem ? I'm calling the method like this:

 Resources.Load<SettingsObject>("Settings");

Settings.prefab file is located in Assets\Editor\Resources\Settings.prefab

I needed to move my Resources directory to Assets directory so the path is now Assets\Resources as in @rh_galaxy reply. I'm using Unity verson 2019.2 so it might be the way it works in this version.

Edit:

I've read in documentation that "Editor" is special folder name so that's why files there were not included in standalone build:

Editor scripts add functionality to Unity during development, but aren’t available in builds at runtime.
