I have this code in my application:
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFile("D:\Temp\Origin.log", "D:\Temp\Destination.log", True)
This code used to work fine until 1 or 2 months ago.
The last couple of months it fails to execute and it throws a 'System.IO.IOException' in mscorlib.dll "Unsupported" when the destination files exists.
My target framework is 4.7.2
I tried to change target framework to 4.6.2 in case an update of NET framework broke it, but still I have the same issue.
Right now I had to temporarily bypass the problem like this:
If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("D:\Temp\Destination.log") Then
My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteFile("D:\Temp\Destination.log", FileIO.UIOption.OnlyErrorDialogs, FileIO.RecycleOption.DeletePermanently)
End If
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFile("D:\Temp\Origin.log", "D:\Temp\Destination.log", True)
While the above code works, it defeats the purpose of having an overwrite overload (which is still supported in 4.7.2 AFAIK)
Also it means I have to change it in far too many places inside my application code.
Does anyone knows why my original code stopped working, or better yet, how to fix it ?
