How to view files stored in LocalStorage ? C# .Net - Metro

Question

Hi, is there a way to view all my stored files in LocalStorage folder ? 

I know I can use the path C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Packages\SomeNumber\LocalState

but I want to do it programmatically, so I can add evry title of the file to a List. 

Answer 1

I hope you understand LocalStorage is isolated from rest of the world i.e. it is just by the same App you can read it and not from any other App.

To see how to read write files in LocalStorage you can refer

• File access sample (Windows 8)
• File access sample (Windows 8.1)

You would also like to refer ApplicationData class

Hello ImNew54, 

Try this:

IReadOnlyList<StorageFile> filelist = await Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFilesAsync();
