FileSystemWatcher events raising twice despite taking measures against it

Question

I\'ve browsed quite a few threads on here and on other sites for solutions to this problem.

Here\'s my FileMonitor class:

class FileMonitor
{
    pub         


        

Answer 1

I've had the same problem and after much ado came to the conclusion that Notepad writes a file three times (!) in row. If an app really saves that much often (maybe to triangulate backups and such) there isn't much you can do.

I also noticed you have attached to all events, you should narrow it down to the least you need and filter out those you aren't interested in with the NotifyFilters.
