The help file for Visual Studio .NET version 1 had a Walkthru for installing
a Windows Service that would monitor a folder.
Version 1.1 does not seem to have that example anymore.
Could someone please send or redirect me to an example of doing this?
Thanks,

Hi Troy,
I posted yesterday a code sniped just for doing so, take a look at it.
Humm. I even think that it was you who asked in the first place, if so, did
you tried it? It's working on my project just fine.
Cheers,

from code to deployment.
The link here is simply a sample for the filewatcher itself. The problem
I am having is trying to get this to work as a Windows Service.
I have no problem using the watcher in a console or windows form
application. I am having trouble getting a Windows Service with the
FileWatcher event to perform at all. I usually get security errors or
nothing happens. I need a detailed walkthru that I know I followed during
the early beta, but can no longer find.

It was me!
I appreciate your example, but I am still having problems however. The
problems I am having are not addressed in the code sample you gave and I
seem to remember the original walkthru having the solution.
For example, the folder I am monitoring is an FTP folder and the created
event seems to be firing as soon as the file is beginning to be written
before the entire file is present.
The other problem I am having is the event is calling a DLL (VFP DLL) that
has dependencies to such things as a DynaZip (zip file extractor) and a 3rd
parth Crypto Library that will decrypt the file. The DLL runs fine from a
windows form, but the Windows Service logs the error that it cannog launch
the dependence DLL.

I have a small problem with my windows service. The first time I start the service everything works the way it's suppose to, but randomly the service fails. The jist of the service is to use the filewatcher component to watch a directory. On create only, the service will read the small XML file, process the information. Once the file is finished processing the information, it should copy the file to another directory and delete the original....

Hi all,
I developped an C# app which is using FileSystemWatcher. If a file is
created in a specific folder, it opens the file and does some processing.
This functionality works without problems in the following scenarios:
In a Winform App, pointing at a Local Folder
In a Winform App, pointing at a mapped network Folder
In a Winform App, pointing at a UNC network location
In a Windows Service pointing at a local Folder.

I created a FileWatcher service to watch a folder. When a new file is
created in the folder, I want to start a process.
Everything works fine if I cut-and-paste a test file from my hard-drive; as
soon as the file is pasted the service notices, the called process fires and
a series of events occurs.
HOWEVER, if I copy a test file from my CD-ROM drive, nothing happens! WTF?

Is there some way to have the fileWatcher to initially check the folder to
see if there is anything in it (based on the filters)?
If I reboot the machine, for example, and it starts up the service - I would
like it to look at the folder initially. The reason being that I may bring
the system down and at that point the files may be written to the target
directory. When I bring it back up again and the service starts, it won't

I have a filewatcher program that is working syncronously (which is how I
want it to work).
But my program will handle whatever files are in the folder at the time it
runs. So when I drop 15 files in the folder at once, the event kicks of 15
times - even though all the files were processed in the 1st event.
This is fine, it just won't find any files in the folder for 14 times.
But if I drop 600 files in the folder at once, it will...

What exactly is FileWatcher doing? When you drop 100 files in a folder it
is watching, it normally will fire of the event 100 times.
In my case, I do all my processing on the first event so I don't need to
reinitialize all my variables for each file. Normally 50 - 100 files will
be dropped in the folder at a time.
If I get an error, in my code it moves out to my try/catch code in the
service - handle it and then exit. Then the next...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
