How can you access files in %appdata% through vb.net? e.g. C:UsersKuzonAppDataRoamingprogram. How would i access that file but on another windows 7 machine, also how would you do it on windows xp? I believe it is %Application Data%
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a project in Visual Basic and it's going to store all the data in a folder in %appdata%. I'm using Visual Studio 2010 I already tried this:My.Computer.FileSystem. CreateDirectory(Environment.ExpandEnvironmentVariables(%AppData est"))but it didn't work.
View 2 RepliesHow do you use user specific folders like the appdata I was making a program that wooed back up folders on different computer without editing the code. So how use folders that you can get to by putting present shins around like %appdata%
View 1 RepliesIs there anyway to change the default appdata program folder?
i have a class to serialize my settings, and i just want to save them to:
appdata/roaming/[programname]/settings.xml
but when i use the filesystem.specialdirectories.currentuserappdata(something like that) it give me appdata/roaming/[company]/[programName]/[Version]/
i don't want any of that extra stuff, especially since new versions won't be able to access the old settings.
I am creating a VB .NET app that uses the user's Application Data to store data. Can an unprivileged user create a folder in the top level of their Application Data directory? I am trying to create the app's folder if it doesn't already exist for that user.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to access the "AppData" of a user on a remote computer. I have all the rights needed. I tried this:
r = RegistryKey.OpenRemoteBaseKey(RegistryHive.Users, MachineName)
r.OpenSubKey(SIDValue & "SoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerUser Shell Folders")
AppData = r.GetValue("AppData")
The fact is that it retrieves my own appdata folder...Actually the SID Value of the account on the distant computer and on mine is the same (I am under a domain). I don't know if it is the reason why I get my own appdata folder.How should I proceed?When I browse the HKEY_Local_Machine, I manage to have information about the remote computer..But not when browsing HKEY_USERS.
I have an xml file I parse to get a path to some other xml files that I then want to parse and read values from. I am fine to get the path from the first xml document and fine to parse the subsequent documents.Where I am struggling is implementing the path. It is being stored using system level variables like:
%appdata%my_appconfig
When I try open the file like this:
xmlConfig.Load(userConfigFile)
It tries to start in the application working directory - assume c:emp So the error message I get is:
Could not find a part of the path 'C:emp\%appdata%my_appconfighive.machine.xml'.
Is there a way I can use this pathing structure in my VB code or determine the actual fully qualified path programatically?
how do I do this properly:
vb
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

I would like to store some app data in a 'default system folder', so when I launch the program it will know where to look for it's own settings.As a matter of fact I only need to store there a path to the files used by the program. Users will be able to choose where to put them (simplified installation). The program has to know where to look for them.
Am I creating the folder properly? As you can see I'm referring to C:... The folder structure presented here comes from my laptop running on Windows 7 Ultimate. Maybe the C:... can be somehow defined by some sort of a system 'shortcut'. Following the above example the program would look for those in C:... , but maybe I can use something like ~~ default.app.settings.My Program Name ~~~. How does it work? Have no idea how to call it properly, but I'm sure you will know what I mean.
My application (vb.net) sometimes throws an "access denied" exception when attempting to delete files in the AppData folder and I'm not sure why.I confirm that the file exists before attempting to delete it and have not done anything to make it readonly, etcThe interesting thing is that it seems to go okay when I'm logged in with Admin rights
View 2 RepliesHow can be find out which file is going to delete when, user provides command like DELETE or SHIFT + DELETE or by programmatically gives DELETE command. Well I know about FileSystemWatcher Class, but this class doesn't provide information before delete...

I thought the %AppData% should find the relative path. When I go 'Start|Run|%AppData% windows explorer takes me to that directory. I can not put the full path in, as the user is different on each client machine.
I'm trying to write a small script that will copy a folder (named .minecraft) to a new folder (doesn't exist, but I want to create a new folder called .minecraft_backups). The current code I have is:
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory("%appdata%/.minecraft", "%appdata%/.minecraft_backups", True)
I get an error saying: Could not find directory '%appdata%/.minecraft'. I'm guessing it's because of the %appdata% shortcut. Is there any workaround to do this? The reason for this is because obviously if I don't enter %appdata% and enter the full route to the directory I need to enter the users username for the computer.

This works fine, unless I have Windows Explorer open and I'm looking at the 'MySubFolder' directory. Then I get an IOException The directory is not empty. - clicking OK dismisses this and then the folder structure is not deleted. Any thoughts on how I can get this to perform correctly (i.e. delete), even when running this code while having the folder struture open in Windows Explorer?

It appears that the row gets marked for deletion after my BindingNavigatorDeleteItem_Click event handler is processed. Is there no way to cancel the delete activity from within the delete click event? If not, then it becomes necessary to store a delete flag and catch another event to RejectChanges.
