How to copy a file to another path?

Question

I need to copy a file to another path, leaving the original where it is.

I also want to be able to rename the file.

Will FileInfo\'s CopyTo method work?

Answer 1

Have a look at File.Copy()

Using File.Copy you can specify the new file name as part of the destination string.

So something like

File.Copy(@"c:\test.txt", @"c:\test\foo.txt");
