Rename a windows file

Post by WesleyWest » Thu Feb 28, 2019 3:04 am

Hello! I am very new to Ranorex and I am having trouble finding any infomation on Ranorex or even Csharp to rename a file from a module.

So Ultimately I need to rename a file before a recording so I can test the software without the ini file. I will then rename it back to the original name at the end of the test case. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in Advance..

Hi,

You can use this .net method to rename files...
System.IO.File.Move(oldfilename,newfilename);

Please add these details to your questions:
  • Ranorex Snapshot. Learn how to create one >here<
  • Ranorex xPath of problematic element(s)
  • Ranorex version
  • OS version
  • HW configuration
