Hi all,<br />
<br />
I am currently using a FileSystemWatcher object in .NET to monitor a network share for newly created files. I was testing my application and it was working fine when I was creating new files in the network share (I was dragging and dropping from my desktop). However when I tested for a slightly larger file (approx 165KB) I noticed that when I dragged the file over, windows renamed the test.xml file to test.xml.tmp1 for a few seconds and then the file is renamed back to its original name.<br />
<br />
The problem for me here is that the file.created event does not fire now in the FileSystemWatcher object. I may have to go down the route of monitoring for the renamed event but was wondering does anybody know why this is happening and any better solutions to the one I propose. <br />
<br />
System: Win XP (64 bit), .NET 4.0, c#<br />
<br />
Many thanks<br />

Windows renaming files with extension tmp1 when dragging them to network share from desktop

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.

Windows XP

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
