How to monitor Window Explorer active directories?
I am trying to monitor when the user try to access a certain directory
like J:/ via window explorer. I read about Directory.GetCurrentDirectory
but I really did not understand how to implement into my program. I also
read about GetForegroundWindow from here. And I also read this website
which I think it is the closest to what I need but his code did not work
like I got nothing when I pressed the button to fetch the active windows,
even after adding the "Microsoft Internet Control" reference. Using VS
2012 this is how I coded it:
SHDocVw.ShellWindows shellWindows = new SHDocVw.ShellWindows();
string filename;
foreach ( SHDocVw.InternetExplorer ie in shellWindows )
{
filename = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension( ie.FullName ).ToLower();
if ( filename.Equals( "explorer" ) )
MessageBox.Show( "Hard Drive : {0}", ie.LocationURL );
}
I am writing it wrong? Is there an easier way to do this? And I apologize
in advance if I did any rookie mistakes
