When a File is Created , Why does FileSystemWatcher Fire 2 Events both
Created Events

Hi Dave,

It shouldn't. You might have managed to add two subscriptions to the same
event, both pointing to the same method. This can happen if you run the code
that creates a subscription without removing any preexisting subscriptions
first.

Hi - I have a hazy memory of seeing this some years ago when I wrote a
program using FileSystemWatcher. It had something to do with the
application which was creating the file - maybe it was somehow
initiating 2 "create events" or something. Sorry I can't remember more,
but I'm sure you can find some help via Google.... :-|
