There is FileWatcher class somewhere in .NET. Look for it :)

Will FileWatcher will work on non shared folder or FTP ?

If the folder is not shared then you cannot access it. This requirement is nonsense. Or I'm missing something. You cannot use FileSystemWatcher with FTP.

If it's none shared network folder, and you're using impersonation to impersonate an account with access to that folder, you could say access the c: drive with the path set to:

\\Servername\c$\

With FTP you'd need a different solution, look at ssh.NET see if there's anything useful in there.
