Hi Daniel,
I performed a test based on your description and saw the same thing as you
did.
In my test, I watch all .txt files in a specified folder and set the
NotifyFilter property of the FileSystemWatcher as follows:
watcher.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.FileName | NotifyFilters.LastWrite |
NotifyFilters.LastAccess ;
Run the application. Open the Windows Explorer and navigate to the
specified folder. As soon as I create a new txt file in the folder, the
Created event of the FileSystemWatcher is fired. Then I rename the new
file's name, and the Renamed event of the FileSystemWatcher is raised.
Press the Enter key and the new txt file is opened in Notepad. Type some
textes in the file and save the changes. At this time, the Changed event of
the FileSystemWatcher is fired.
I suggest that you use the Changed event of the FileSystemWatcher component
to get notified after a file being entirely written on disk.
Hope this helps.
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.
Sincerely,
Linda Liu
