Answer 1

you can do it in other way, using URI :

using Windows.Storage;
StorageFile file = await StorageFile.GetFileFromApplicationUriAsync("ms-appx:///file.txt");

So in your case it will be:

StorageFile txtfile = await StorageFile.GetFileFromApplicationUriAsync(new Uri("ms-appx:///myfolder/myfile.txt"));
