I am trying to display a list of all files found in the selected directory (and optionally any subdirectories). The problem I am having is that when the GetFiles() method comes across a folder that it cannot access, it throws an exception and the process stops. How do I ignore this exception (and ignore the protected folder/file) and co...
I have a simple file selector on my web application which uses Directory.GetFiles and Directory.GetDirectories to produce the UI. This works perfectly on my localhost, but when I upload it to my Windows Server 2003 hosting I can only see files - on the same directory, GetFiles works but GetDirectories doesn't. The code is incredibly si...
Hi all, Directory.GetFiles method fails on the first encounter with a folder it has no access rights to. The method throws an UnauthorizedAccessException (which can be caught) but by the time this is done, the method has already failed/terminated. The code I am using is listed below: try { // looks in stat...
Here is my code, Dim allFiles As FileInfo() = tempDir.GetFiles("*.pdf", SearchOption.AllDirectories) I've googled and found that I need to change the permissions of my app from Project properties > View UAC Settings > and change level to level="requireAdministrator" But its also not working.

Hi everyone. I have a folder with far too many files in, and I want to go through each file one by one. The problem is that Directory.GetFiles returns a completed array, and this takes too long. I would rather have an object I would point to a folder, then call a function that returns me the next file in the folder. Does .NET have a cla...
Edit 6: Using Windows Integrated authentication (with an account that has access to the share and the database), I can get the list of files/directories. However, refresh the page and get an UnauthorizedAccessException. Perhaps a NetBIOS or ActiveDirectory limitation. 5 months and still no solution, other than 'use impersonation' (via P...

I know that in the same directory where my code is being executed some files are located. I need to find them and pass to another method: MyLib.dll Target1.dll Target2.dll Foo(new[] { "..\\..\\Target1.dll", "..\\..\\Target2.dll" }); So I call System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(path, "*.dll"). But now I need to get know the path: string pa...
Hi, I've got the following code files = di.GetFiles("*.jpg"); for (int i = 0; i < files.Length; i++) { il.Images.Add(System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(folder + "\\" + files[i].Name)); lv.Items.Add(files[i].Name, i); } the code fills a System.Windows.Forms.ImageList with pictures from a jpg files. it also creates a System.Windows.Fo...

In C#, how do I check if a specific file exists in a directory or any of its subdirectories? System.IO.File.Exists only seems to accept a single parameter with no overloads to search subdirectories. I can do it with LINQ and System.IO.Directory.GetFiles using the SearchOption.AllDirectories overload, but that seems a bit heavy han...
