Message: [QUOTE="Uranium-235, post: 186439, member: 76118"] I notice using using Filesystem.Filecopy, the destination becomes pre-allocted in size (in this case, copied to external hard drive) I am trying to get a timer to get the active file size being written, but that seems it might not be possible using filecopy. What I'm trying to do is get the file size directly. I know it's possible with a few other techniques but i'm trying to keep it simple here. Getting the source size, end size, and cross multiply to get the percentage written. I'm start the filecopy in an async background worker. and the file monitor as a timer, which from the beginning shows the files full size (again, system probably pre-allocates it). I'll try to do some more research on the subject. Might have to do with it being an external hard drive [/QUOTE]
