搜索文件并在VB中检索它的路径

Question

我试图搜索文件"prince.exe"，并使用VB.Net检索它的文件路径，但我找不到这样做的方法。我想你可能能够使用命令提示符，但我不确定如何。

Private Sub Main_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    'Search for file and retrive path'
End Sub

Use the GetFiles function of System.IO.Directory. Make sure to use the overload that lets you pass the SearchOption value of AllDirectories.

Dim strStartingDirectory As String = "C:\YourStarting\Directory\"
Dim lstMatches As List(of string) = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(strStartingDirectory, _
                                                                 "prince.exe", System.IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories).ToList()
