The File type exposes the following members.

Methods

	Name	Description
	AppendAllLines(String, IEnumerable<String>)	When it is called by trusted applications, appends lines to a file, and then closes the file.
	AppendAllLines(String, IEnumerable<String>, Encoding)	When it is called by trusted applications, appends lines to a file by using a specified encoding, and then closes the file.
	AppendAllText(String, String)	When it is called by trusted applications, appends the specified string to the file, and then closes the file. If the file does not exist, this method creates a file, writes the specified string to the file, then closes the file.
	AppendAllText(String, String, Encoding)	When called by trusted applications, appends the specified string to the file, creating the file if it does not already exist.
	AppendText	When it is called by trusted applications, creates a StreamWriter that appends UTF-8 encoded text to an existing file.
	Copy(String, String)	When it is called by trusted applications, copies an existing file to a new file. Overwriting a file of the same name is not allowed.
	Copy(String, String, Boolean)	When it is called by trusted applications, copies an existing file to a new file. Overwriting a file of the same name is allowed.
	Create(String)	When it is called by trusted applications, creates or overwrites a file in the specified path.
	Create(String, Int32)	When it is called by trusted applications, creates or overwrites the specified file.
	CreateText	When it is called by trusted applications, creates or opens a file for writing UTF-8 encoded text.
	Delete	When it is called by trusted applications, deletes the specified file. An exception is not thrown if the specified file does not exist.
	Exists	When it is called by trusted applications, determines whether the specified file exists.
	GetAttributes	Gets the FileAttributes of the file on the path.
	GetCreationTime	When it is called by trusted applications, returns the creation date and time of the specified file or directory.
	GetLastAccessTime	When it is called by trusted applications, returns the date and time the specified file or directory was last accessed.
	GetLastWriteTime	When it is called by trusted applications, returns the date and time the specified file or directory was last written to.
	Move	When it is called by trusted applications, moves a specified file to a new location, providing the option to specify a new file name.
	Open(String, FileMode)	When it is called by trusted applications, opens a FileStream on the specified path with read/write access.
	Open(String, FileMode, FileAccess)	When it is called by trusted applications, opens a FileStream on the specified path, with the specified mode and access.
	Open(String, FileMode, FileAccess, FileShare)	When it is called by trusted applications, opens a FileStream on the specified path, having the specified mode with read, write, or read/write access and the specified sharing option.
	OpenRead	When it is called by trusted applications, opens an existing file for reading.
	OpenText	When it is called by trusted applications, opens an existing UTF-8 encoded text file for reading.
	OpenWrite	When it is called by trusted applications, opens an existing file for writing.
	ReadAllBytes	When it is called by trusted applications, opens a binary file, reads the contents of the file into a byte array, and then closes the file.
	ReadAllText(String)	When it is called by trusted applications, opens a text file, reads all lines of the file, and then closes the file.
	ReadAllText(String, Encoding)	When it is called by trusted applications, opens a file, reads all lines of the file with the specified encoding, and then closes the file.
	ReadLines(String)	When it is called by trusted applications, reads the lines of a file.
	ReadLines(String, Encoding)	When it is called by trusted applications, read the lines of a file that has a specified encoding.
	SetAttributes	Security Critical. Sets the specified FileAttributes of the file on the specified path.
	WriteAllBytes	When it is called by trusted applications, creates a new file, writes the specified byte array to the file, and then closes the file. If the target file already exists, it is overwritten.
	WriteAllLines(String, IEnumerable<String>)	When it is called by trusted applications, creates a new file, writes a collection of strings to the file, and then closes the file.
	WriteAllLines(String, IEnumerable<String>, Encoding)	When it is called by trusted applications, creates a new file by using the specified encoding, writes a collection of strings to the file, and then closes the file.
	WriteAllText(String, String)	When it is called by trusted applications, creates a new file, writes the specified string to the file, and then closes the file. If the target file already exists, it is overwritten.
	WriteAllText(String, String, Encoding)	When it is called by trusted applications, creates a new file, writes the specified string to the file using the specified encoding, and then closes the file. If the target file already exists, it is overwritten.

Platform Notes

Silverlight for Windows Phone

This type is present to support the .NET Compact Framework infrastructure in Silverlight for Windows Phone, and it is not intended to be used in your application code.

Examples

The following example uses a File in a trusted application to determine if a file exists in a users' My Documents folder. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the StreamReader class.

Private Sub OpenFile_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)

    If Application.Current.HasElevatedPermissions Then
    
        ' fileLoc is a global string variable.
        fileLoc = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments), "MyDoc.txt")

        ' Create the file if it does not exist.
        If Not File.Exists(fileLoc) Then
            Using swNew As New StreamWriter(fileLoc)
                swNew.WriteLine("Sample text")
            End Using
        End If

        ' Display the contents in a TextBox.
        Using sr As New StreamReader(fileLoc)
            inputData.Text = sr.ReadToEnd()
            inputData.Visibility = Visibility.Visible
        End Using
    End If
End Sub

private void OpenFile_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{

    if (Application.Current.HasElevatedPermissions)
    {
        // fileLoc is a global string variable.
        fileLoc = System.IO.Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(
           Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments), "MyDoc.txt");

        // Create the file if it does not exist.
        if (!File.Exists(fileLoc))
        {
            using (StreamWriter swNew = new StreamWriter(fileLoc))
            {
                swNew.WriteLine("Sample text");
            }
        }

        // Display the contents in a TextBox.
        using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(fileLoc))
        {
            inputData.Text = sr.ReadToEnd();
            inputData.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
        }
    }
}
