Hello there.

I have got a bug in my application: when the event is fired (say, file is renamed or content was changed) the process of "watching" is stopped, so I got to click the "Watch" button over again.
Please suggest how I can workaround this issue so the monitoring and writing to the log file will be non-stop?
Installation: you have got to create "FileLogs" dir on disk c in order the program to function.
Thx a lot.

The process is not stopped, it is still running. It is only the message in your textbox that is changing.

First of all, the message is changing in the label, not in text box.

1. But this does not help me - I kindly asked where do I have to start looking at to fix this issue?
2. Moreover, if the OnChanged event is raised, could someone tell me why there are 2 identical records in the log file instead of only 1?

Fix is located in the zip file attached, I have deleted previous buggy version.
This project can serve for some educational purposes, but please if u distribute it then specify that it was partially taken from the Wrox's book "Visual c# 2005 for beginners", though the example in the book is reaaaaaaaaaally buggy.
