Hi,
I'm developing a WPF application and I need to use the Openfiledialog class. OpenFileDialog launches fine and I can navigate through any file without any issue except for the Libraries option under the tree view. Eg: If I click on pictures ,music under the libraries,the application hangs and after a delay it opens the folder. Whereas, if i manually open the folder ie through C:\Users... there is no issue at all. My code is :
Microsoft.Win32.OpenFileDialog dlg = new Microsoft.Win32.OpenFileDialog();
dlg.Filter = "Image Files (.png)|*.png|Image Files (.jpeg)|*jpeg |Image Files (.jpg)|*jpg";
dlg.InitialDirectory = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location) + "\\Images";
Nullable<bool> result = dlg.ShowDialog();
When the application hangs I do not get any exception as well. My application (which calls the openfiledialog) runs as a shell application. I don't want to open the filedialog through a different application.
PS: I have also tried the System.Windows.Forms.OpenFiledialog,the same issue is present there as well
Can someone explain why this behavioral change in the openfiledialog ?
