I have the following situation.
A file is placed in a certain directory, when it is copied, I need to move it to another folder.
How do I check if this file has already been pasted to be moved afterwards.
I already have the move method ready, I just need to check if it has already finished copying in the first directory.
In response to @dsfgsho for a question similar to yours:
When a file is being used it becomes unavailable, so you can check its availability and wait until it is available for use.
void AguardaArquivo()
{
// Seu aqruivo
var file = new FileInfo("caminho/do/arquivo");
// Enquanto o arquivo não está acessível, deve estar sendo copiado
while (IsFileLocked(file)) { }
// A partir daqui o arquivo está disponível
}

protected virtual bool IsFileLocked(FileInfo file)
{
FileStream stream = null;
try
{
stream = file.Open(FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite, FileShare.None);
}
catch (IOException)
{
return true;
}
finally
{
if (stream != null)
stream.Close();
}
//file is not locked
return false;
}
