what you want to do exactly ? create a folder with windows application or with an web based application (asp.net )
System.IO namespace will help you create a folder in windows application on desktop
see below snippet


System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory("Desktop path\\welcome"  );
//to get desktop path use following code
string path = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop);

//now the full code is
System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(path  + "\\welcome"  );

hope it helps

Hi,

What you have tried so far, first you have to create console application to execute the exe purpose, later just make a code as you want.

If you want to create folder then use below piece of code, this helps you to create folder


System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(Path);

using CreateDirectory you can easily create the folder.

Hope this helps you...
