Use the DirectoryInfo class to encapsulate a directory on which you want to perform a number of operations (it is more efficient because security checks are only performed once).   All of the methods of this class are static - meaning that they are available by simply supplying the path of a folder that you want to create, modify or delete.   Modifications include setting Directory creation time, and last access and update times.  Methods CreateDirectory   Creates a new Directory or nest of Directories for the specified Path Delete   Delete a Directory (folder) or nest of Directories Exists   Returns True if the specified path exists on the current machine GetCreationTime   Gets the date and time that the specified Directory was created GetCurrentDirectory   Get the Current Directory (folder) GetDirectories   Gets the Directories (folders) in the specified Directory GetDirectoryRoot   Gets the Root Device or Folder for the specified Path string GetFiles   Gets the files in the specified Directory GetFileSystemEntries   Gets the Files and Directories (folders) in the specified Directory GetLastAccessTime   Gets the date and time that the specified Directory was last accessed GetLastWriteTime   Gets the date and time that the specified Directory was last updated GetLogicalDrives   Gets the names of the Logical Drives on the current machine GetParent   Gets the parent Directory (folder) name of the specified Path Move   Move a File or Directory to a new location SetCreationTime   Sets the specified Directory (folder) Creation date and time SetCurrentDirectory   Set the Current Directory (folder) SetLastAccessTime   Sets the specified Directory (folder) Last Access date and time SetLastWriteTime   Sets the specified Directory (folder) Last Write date and time  Microsoft MSDN links   System.IO System.IO.directory
