FileNotFoundException While trying to copy the file from one directory to another

Question

I have some files (.txt, word, excel files) in "C:\\ABC\\Temp" and I want to move all the .txt files into "C:\\ABC\\Text", but I'm getting a FileNotFoundException .

Please find attached code.

static void Main()
{
    string sp = @"C:/ABC/Temp";
    string dp = @"C:/ABC/TextFiles";
    string[] fileList=Directory.GetFiles(sp);

    foreach(string file in fileList)
    {
        if (file.EndsWith(".txt"))
        { 
            File.Move(sp,dp);
        }
    }
}
}

}

Answer 1

You're trying to move the entire directories with File.Move .

You have to specify the file name as well:

File.Move(file, Path.Combine(dp, Path.GetFileName(file)));
