Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(),


This is about the worst way you can do this. The thing everyone doesn't realize about GetCurrentDirectory is that the currect directory can unexpectedly change or start in a folder you didn't expect to begin with. Don't make the mistake of believing that just because your app was just launched and the first thing you did was GetCurrentDirectory that you're going to get the path to the folder your .EXE was launched from. What if someone created a shortcut to your app and set the "working directory" to C:\Windows? Guess which folder GetCurrentDirectory is going to return...

Use Luc's example and build the path correctly. Don't use string concatentation to build the folder path either. Use Path.Combine instead.
