The Answer on the link differs because there are parameters entered to the GetFiles function. Belial However, he wants the total file count in one directory, so i don't see why using a search-pattern or search-option could help.

The GetFiles method then retrieves a collection of strings, one for each file in the directory. The GetFiles method accepts a search pattern argument to retrieve files that match a particular pattern.
In this example, only files that have the extension. The strings that are returned by the GetFiles method are then added to the ListBox. Run the application. Click the Browse button. In the Browse For Folder dialog box, browse to a folder that contains. Create a Click event handler for examineButton by double-clicking the control on the form. The code verifies that an item is selected in the ListBox. It then obtains the file path entry from the ListBox.
The FileExists method is used to check whether the file still exists. The file path is sent as an argument to the GetTextForOutput method, which is added in the next step. This method returns a string that contains file information. The file information appears in a MessageBox. The code uses the GetFileInfo method to obtain file parameters. The file parameters are added to a StringBuilder.
