I would like to get the path to recycle bin. I searched online and found people use shell32 and get a list of files in recycle bin. However, I only want to get the path of recycle bin since my purpose is to exclude monitor recycle bin from my filewatcher when setting IncludeSubdirectories to true. The code using shell32 to get a list of files shown in the following, but I don't to how to get the path to recycle bin.
Shell Shl = new Shell();
Folder Recycler = Shl.NameSpace(10);
for (int i = 0; i < Recycler.Items().Count; i++)
{
FolderItem FI = Recycler.Items().Item(i);
string FileName = Recycler.GetDetailsOf(FI, 0);
if (Path.GetExtension(FileName) == "") FileName += Path.GetExtension(FI.Path);
string FilePath = Recycler.GetDetailsOf(FI, 1);
Console.WriteLine(FilePath);
}
Thanks in advance!
