Re: Catching exceptions from a FileSystemWatcher event handler

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

what are you throwing? You should be able to catch any cls compliant
exception. If it is non cls compliant, you will still be able to catch it
with a catch all filter but you won't be able do anything because there is
no exception object available. did i understand you right?
