I need to unzip en zip some files in my application using Shell32. Right now, I use srcFolder.CopyHere(destFolder.Items()) to achieve this. However, my next line of code requires the newly made ZIP-file. But since the CopyHere method is Async, how can I check when it in finished? Right now I use a Thread.Sleep for around 500 ms which is enough for my computer to finish creating the ZIP file, but it's not good code imo.
I want to use Shell32 as a reference but, not that it's place as Interop.Shell32.dll in my folder. So, I want my application to use "C:WindowsSystem32Shell32.dll"
I have been trying to use Shell32.dll to zip files, I have also attempted to create empty zip folders dynamically and have had no success, I was able to create an empty zip folder but when I try to use the zip folder I receive an error message and the zip folder created remains empty. Error: QuoteWindows cannot create the Compressed (zipped) Folder. [Code] If I use the empty zip without creating a new one this is the error message: QuoteFile not found or no read permission. The empty zip it creates is 100% valid with Windows Explorer.

I am trying to copy some files to folder.I am using the following statement to check if the source fie exists If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists (fileToCopy) Then But I donot know how to check if file exists in the folder before copying.
I need a script that will check files in a certain folder (lets call it folder1) against files in another folder (folder2), if there are any new files, or changed files it updates them in folder2.
I have a list of users with me and I need to find out programmatically which of the users present in the list have read/write permissions on a particular folder/file.
while the application is running i'm using FileSystemWatcher to monitor the folder. But what if there are changes to the folder when the application is not running, how can I check for these changes when the application starts.(similar to how windows media player, for example, monitors your music folder. Even when you add songs to that folder when it is not running, it does discover them when it runs next time)
I have literally looked everywhere on the internet and i cannot find a way to check if a folder exists on an FTP server. I am using Visual Basic 2010 Express Edition.
I have created a folder and a sub folder within it and trying to check if the folder exists or not in the registry editor.This is how I have Created:
Dim kstrRegSubKeyName As String = "CompanyName\SoftwareName" Dim oReg As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey oReg = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("Software", True)[code]....
Now I need to check if that CompanyName Folder is deleted or not and display a message.

I have a folder that can (hundreds currently) but upwards of 10's of thousands of files. I have a program that gets all file names, and sorts them based upon set criteria and displays them in a treeview. My issue is right now a few hundred files moves fairly quickly when getting files name (path.getfiles), sorting, and returning sorted list for further search and display. My concern is when the number of files starts to increase, alot of these functions will take exponentially longer to perform. Especially my organizing function.
Because my files are part numbers <PartNum><Rev><SubRev><ManuNum>.<extension> I first sort out all different Part numbers first making the list manageable (maximum of a few thousand). Then as you choose a part number to work with, it retrieves all files associated with that part number (maximum of a few hundred).
My concern is everytime I need to look for a file in anyone of those steps, I have to import all file names, search and return correct file path, and Im sure this will become slow as the number of files increase. I dont mind having it do it once then update the list as needed. So I was thinking import and sort all file names at load, and check every so often for and files that might have been modified recently and just update it's entry in the sorted list. But this means my program has to stop, and check all files for changed "modified" time, which too will be slow-ish.
How can I check if an Image File exists in a Folder?I need something similar to this:If C:***My RecipesNick's Milktart 237.png Exist ThenThe code that goes here is not a problem; I will show it as soon as it works.
