C# - Folder Deleting Not Working?
Apr 5, 2012
If System.IO.Directory.Exists(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("images/TravelogueGallery/" & getMaxID())) Then
System.IO.Directory.Delete(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("images/TravelogueGallery/" & getMaxID()), True)
End If
I am using the above code snippet to delete a directory but I get this error:
'G:ProjectsLatestLTCIndia 05-04-12 1415imagesTravelogueGallery19' is not a valid virtual path.
UPDATE: I have updated the question with the correct answer. The above code snippet works just fine.

vb 2008 on Vista: I have a folder called "Documents", and another called "PastDocuments". When the user deletes a client, I copy the contents of Documents into the Past Documents folder. Next, I need to delete the Documents folder, but there are existing files within that folder, so it won't let me delete it. What is the easiest way to delete ALL files within that folder?

I have created a project where I can attach files and I am displaying the name of the file, example:
Mytestfile.doc
mytestfile.txt
Mytestfile.pdf
I have the names being displayed on a listbox, so far everything is working just the way I expected to work.When a file is selected from my opendialogbox, the file gets saved into a folder under my local disk, so far so good.The problem that I am having is deleting the file from the folder.I have added a delete button and I would like to when I click or highlight one of the file names to go into where the file was saved previously and deleted This is the code that I have for the delete funtion:
[CODE Dim sFileName As String = "C:program filesSupport DeskAttachments" & ListBox1.Text
System.IO.File.Delete(sFileName)][/code]
The problem is that if I add the code to the clcik event under the listbox, it works great, but if I add the code to the click event under my delete button, it doesn't work, what I found is that under the path, if I am under the click event from the listbox when it gets to the lisxtbox.text it displays the file name, which is what I whant, but when i tried the code under the click event under my delete button the listbox.text is blank.

I have a web app which displays a list of emails that need to be sent for the day. The user can select what emails to send, then click a button to generate them. When they click the Send button, a process gets started on another thread which generates the emails, then cleans up after itself by deleting a temp folder. Once the process is finished, the Repeater is rebound to update the User's view and remove the emails that have just been sent so they don't get sent again.
My problem is that when I delete the temp folder from my 2nd thread, the UI doesn't update with the new Repeater data. It updates correctly if I just delete the files in the folder instead of the folder itself, and it also updates correctly if I run the delete the folder on the original thread instead of the 2nd one.
New Thread code
Dim t as Thread = New Thread(New ThreadStart(AddressOf EmailLetters))
t.Start()
Delete folder code
Dim fs = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
fs.DeleteFolder(Server.MapPath(".") + " mpEmailFiles")
Why won't the UI update to show the new repeater values when I delete a folder on another thread?
When you click the button, a thread gets started and a javascript load script starts executing which does a PostBack every 10 seconds. Each postback checks if the thread is complete and updates the Status label showing the result. If I delete a folder from within the background thread, the final update to the status label never occurs. If I remove the DeleteFolder call, it does.

I'm trying to delete a dll file in the system32 folder but receive a permission error (Access to the path 'c:\windows\system32\testfile.dll' is denied.)
I'm using:

I have multiple versions of an app that uses a dll, I have to replace the dll with the correct version and register it. The plan was to delete it from system32, and copy over the relevant version, then register it.

I've been going round and round with this and thought maybe someone would know.I've created a program which with process.showdialog calls up a form into which the user enters username and password then is given access to the program itself. If the username and password is incorrect, the program closes.
There is a frmMain and in the form load I've added the process to open this sort of splash login screen. It's not a splash really, it isn't timed to close down.
I fill out the login information, click the save settings checkbox which creates a settings file in MyDocuments. My problem is that in debugging, removing the click closes the login page without the click actually becoming unclicked. The Main program opens before there's been a chance to register the "unclick." Hope this makes sense.

I don't really know how to code but am pretty good at tweaking. I'm trying to set up a script that I can run to delete a single file, multiple files, a folder or multiple folders on a list of servers.I was thinking that the script could read the files to be deleted from a .txt file and apply the deletion to a list of servers in another .txt file.Example:
FilesToBeDeleted.txt:
\(insert_server_name_from_list)c$Program FilesBINexample_file.rpt

I installed the new one. I then imported an old project made using vb 2008 EE.I found that a few errors were reported.In the project I addressed some function from a dll called "rsource.dll". I used the following function call:Public Declare Function rs_init Lib "rsource.dll" Alias "init" () As Double.The other different thing is the projevt was developed on a 32 bit OS but since then I have upgraded to 64bit (if this makes any difference). he other thing is where is the debugger PAUSE button. has it been removed from vb 2010?Also when i run debug it seems to create the exe in the Build output target folder instead of the default bindebug folder why is this?
