Hi, I want to put watch on thousand directory using window api FindFirstChangeNotification which is creating thousand file handles. Is there any way to put watch on thousand directory using one file handle?

Thanks in advance, Vijay

Answer 1

You can do as Arpit says and put the watch on a higher-level directory which contains those directories.

Alternatively you can use the USN journal:
