Hi Mike,

Maybe the example in the 101 samples will help you...i just downloded and tested it.

in this MSI there is a sample for the file watch, i opened three instances of the same app and all three showed the new folder or file i created.


Hope this helps



>I have a application that uses System.IO.FileSystemWatcher to watch for a file to appear and ... it works great. However ... if I run two or more instances of the app on the same machine, only one of them sees the file.
