View 1 RepliesC# - DirectoryInfo.Delete(True) Doesn't Delete When Folder Structure Is Open In Windows Explorer
Nov 5, 2010Assuming I have a folder structure like:
[Code]...
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?
VS 2008 Program For Folder Redirection In Windows 7
Jul 28, 2011I want to create several folders on a specified drive, some are up to 3 levels deep such as x:users\%username%Documents
%username% would be a folder created after the users actual user name
What I would like to be able to do is create these folders for each username that resides on computer including the "default user" however the rest of the built in windows accounts I do not need to do this with.
I then want to change the registry setting under each user, for example these two keys (their are more keys however but they all follow this except for the last part of the key where instead of personal it would be named videos or something):
HKUS-1-5-21-9999999999-999999999999-9999999999999-1002SoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerShell FoldersPersonal: "C:UsersTest UserDocuments"
HKUS-1-5-21-9999999999-999999999999-9999999999999-1002SoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerUser Shell FoldersPersonal: "%USERPROFILE%Documents"
specifically this value needs to change "C:UsersTest UserDocuments" and this one "%USERPROFILE%Documents"
However it is my understanding that this key is specific to each user based on the S-1-5-21-999999999999-999999999999 number which I believe is referred to a GUID.
I know how to create a folder, I know how to change other registry settings that have integers but I am stumped on this.

Jul 27, 2011I make an application and make setup file using VS setup project. This work fine and create default text files into Program Files Folder for winodw 7/vista .but can not modify these files or create any new files.
There are few text files need to create ,modify during application running ,but in windows 7/vista unable to create,modify files.I am using full default admin right for these OS. If iuse C: root path then application work fine or for win XP no problem.I think UAC restricting to perform these opeartion. But i do not know how to change these restriction using vb.net, whenever application start.
I found one solution that , if change user rights manually then this problem solved.Follow these step to change your account settings.Control Panel-->User Accounts and Family Safety-->User Accounts-->Change User Account Control settings-->Never notify(Set tab to never notify).After this change need to restart system.Now can make all changes like windows XP into Windows 7.can also make changes into program files.
Its working fine, but need to make these changes manually in OS.but its not efficent solution. So if any one knows how can make these changes by coding that will nice.
