Trying to check if a drive is writable. Can do it by trying to create a directory using DirectoryInfo class then checking err.number but looking for a more elegant way. Tried DirectoryInfo.Attributes.ReadOnly but always get a FileAttributes.ReadOnly result. Any help would be appreciated.

Some people have suggested the desire for code completion and refined
edit-time error detection are an indication of incompetence on the part of
the programmer who wants such features. Unfortunately these ad hominem
rhetorts are frequently introduced into purely technical discussions on the
feasibility of supporting such functionality in C++. That usually serves
to divert the discussion from the technical subject to a discussion of the...

I am trying to write some C# code that will allow me to determine if the
current user running my application has "write" permissions to a particular
folder. However, I can't seem to get it to work. In the code snippet I've
included below, it always returns "true" whether the folder/file exists or
not (let alone whether or not they have permissions).
Any ideas?

I know what my drive type is, e.g. cd rom or removable media.
Is there a way to query the drive to see if it contains media, and one step
further, whether it is writeable.
This applies for any removeable drive, and CD drives.
Thanks
Tony

Some time ago, I posed a queston in this newsgroup regarding how to determine
if a drive was readonly. The only way I had found was to try to create a
directory or file then chedk if an error was encountered. The replies were
that this was acceptable. However, it takes time to do this. Since I found
a way, which probably most know already but for those new to VB.Net, here it
is:

I have a simple function that returns a boolean depending on if a file
is in use on a local drive. (looking to see if a file is finished
being written to by another app) Works great from a local drive but
when I send it a unc path to the same folder, it does not work. my
question is Why? and or if anyone has a better solution to see if a
file is being used exclusively on a network share, i would be
interested to know.
Thanks

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
