Prepending a string to a string[]

There must be something I'm missing, but is there an easy way to add a
given string as the first element in a string[] after the string[] is
created (from, say, a Directory.GetFiles function call)?

You can use StringBuilder to do it.

No. Arrays are fixed size. You need to create a new array with the
bigger size, put the string into the first element, then copy the array
into the rest.
