    desktop.ini


    My Pc is Windows 10 Professional 64 bit.



    I found that there is one file named desktop.ini (notice that it’s not virus like_desktop.ini) in many of my folders where there are customised icons in such folders. I know its function is to store the info, pictures, etc. I tried to HIDE them by applying methods like “Do not show hidden files and folders” in folder setting, or set its own “Properties”, etc. It only worked at the time I did it, when next time I started my laptop, there are still in those folders.



    Can anyone help me with the problem?



    Thanks!

    :)

    GetSections() will return a string[] of section names. If you want the values too, just do a for or for loop to enumerate them. For example:

    Code: foreach (string section in ini.GetSections()) { Console.WriteLine("[" + section + "]"); foreach (string key in ini[section].GetKeys()) Console.WriteLine(key + "=" + ini[section][key]); Console.WriteLine(); }[/quote]
