Hi pals, I am trying to create a small utility which can block folders from direct access. For this purpose, I have a textbox in my form and a two buttons namely: browse and apply. Now, whenever the user clicks on browse, the Open file dialog box appears and whatever folder has been selected by the user is displayed in the textbox. Now, comes the major problem. In order to block the particular folder selected by the user, I have to generate two batch files (files with .bat extension) on the location of the folder, that has to be locked. Like if the folder to be blocked is in this 'C:\\myfolder\\subfolder\\lockfolder' location, where lockfolder is the particular folder which I have to lock, then in that case, I have to generate a batch file in 'C:\\my folder\\subfolder\' that will lock the folder 'lockfolder'. Any Idea how to do that..... please recommend. Sorry for my poor english, Cheers to you, Rajdeep.NET :)
.bat files are just renamed text files. Look into the StreamWriter class

I'm getting very suspicious about what you're trying to do. I would suggest that people here stop helping you until answer the question I asked in my last post to you[^].

So, just to recap. You're trying to: a) Copy the currently running exe b) Hide the console window c) Block access to a folder If this isn't something you shouldn't be writing then im the pope.

Yeah, with you're skill level, and total lack of knowledge in how Windows works, you're never going to pull this off.
