C＃创建zip，添加文件但无法打开

Question

I'm not a C# developer so my knowledge is limited. However, I'm trying to write a program in C# which exports the Windows security log for certain date and export it as an evtx file.

But then what I have to do is add this evtx file to a zip file. The code below creates the zip file (I can see it) and adds evtx file to the zip (I think because in windows explore the size changes from 0kb to more).

#region "COMPRESS THE EVTX FILE INTO A ZIP FILE: "
// First create a new ZIP archive in the "Achives" folder.
string zipFileName = "Zip-" + getDateTimeStamp(1) + ".zip";
string zipFilePath = System.IO.Path.Combine(zipEvtxDirectoryPath, zipFileName);
ZipArchive zipFile = ZipFile.Open(zipFilePath, ZipArchiveMode.Create);

// Add the evtx file created in program directory to this zip archive.
Console.WriteLine(evtxFilePath);
Console.WriteLine(evtxFileName);
zipFile.CreateEntryFromFile(evtxFilePath, evtxFileName);

//evtxFilePath = "D:\TEST\VS\FilesAndFolders\TestDirectory\Archives\Security-Log-Archive-11-01-2015-04-18-58.evtx"
//evtxFileName = "Security-Log-Archive-11-01-2015-04-18-58.evtx"
//zipFilePath = "D:\TEST\VS\FilesAndFolders\TestDirectory\Archives\Zip-11-01-2015-04-18-58"

#endregion

But when I go try to open the zip file using windows explorer, it gives me an error.

Windows cannot open the folder.

The Compressed (zipped) Folder 'D:\\TEST\\VS\\FilesAndFolders\\TestDirectory\\Archives\\Zip-11-01-2015-04-18-58.zip' is invalid.

Perhaps, the code that I'm using is incomplete? or I missed something?

Answer 1

you have written a piece of code that opens the file and writes. Once the process of creating the file and writing in it, you should tell the PC to close the file.

Im not exactly sure of the commands in this instance, try something like

zipFile.close;
