Out of curiosity, is there a way i can make a program stop or pause for a period of time (which i would choose) before continuing the code WITHOUT a timer.I think I've seen this done before, but I'm not positive.Also note that I'm talking about a forms application (not a console app if that would be any different.)

Alright, so I'm still working on the slot machine. I have three timers all independently going for my three "wheels" of the slot machine.
My issue, is that I'm trying to make a Stop button to stop each timer one at a time, and I'm not understanding why this code isn't working. The logic completely makes sense, and the first "wheel" stops when I click the button, however, it doesnt appear to stop the other two timers.
CODE:

My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteDirectory("folder location here", FileIO.DeleteDirectoryOption.DeleteAllContents)
I created a program which was deleting a particular directory for me. The program was compiled and working. Today I run the same program...did not do any system updates and now it won't delete my specified directory. I ran tests to make sure the directory is there when testing...I keep getting access/permission errors.
I rebooted system, ran my application...still gave me error. I turned off Windows Defender...still got error. If I manually delete the directory...no problem.
Is there a way to get system permission to delete the directory? I am being given an 'access denied' error...I do not have permission. I tried running my application as administrator...no good. - VB 2008 Express - VISTA OS

I have a text file "deleteme.txt" in the directory
"c:\users\john\temp".
If someone else had that text file on their computer but their user name 'john' was different.. such as
"c:\users\mary\temp"
What would be the code so that that text file will be deleted from that directory under any user name? Like for example you have to go through 'john' in order to get to my "temp" folder... but when I put in "%temp%" it automatically took me to my temp folder.. can I use something like this to be able to delete a file under any user name?
Like maybe something along the lines of:
dim filetodelete as string
filetodeletev="%temp%/deleteme.txt"
if system.io.file.exists(filetodelete) = true then
system.io.file.delete(filetodelete)
But this code doesn't delete the text file 'deleteme.txt' from john or marys computer. What would be the correct way to do this?

[code]...
But when I try it .. It says that I cannot remove the directory because it already has files inside it.My question is, how can I remove all these files together (Without mentioning each one of them because they're about 100 files) so I can be able to delete the directory?

I'm trying to read a csv file. I'm also try to delete all files in the temp directory on the page load. Everything goes fine the first time, but the second time I get an error saying it couldn't delete the file because it is in use by another process. I'm aware that this process is my vb file, I just can't seem to find what I need to dispose of to get rid of the file lock.
Here is my code

This is the code snippet posted on the site, anyway i tried various diffrent delete contents of a folder methods, but none could skip a file if it was in use or undeletable (but the reason is mostly due to it being in use)
I have a multi user application that stores temporary files in a folder that the users are using, but i want all unused temporary files deleted in it. So how do i go about doing this?

I'm working on a reaction time program where I'll be testing... well, reaction time of a user. For this program I'll need a timer to stop at a random time interval, say somewhere between 3 and 10 seconds. Anyone know of a technique to do this. I've done some research and it seems there are a bunch of different ways of generating a random number just not sure how to assign that number to a timer.
