hello guys, i need a variable that takes the directory along with the most recent file and rename

the most recent file variable is this one:
new DirectoryInfo(“name”).GetFiles().OrderByDescending(Function(f) f.LastWriteTime).First().ToString

however I need the full path of the directory + the most recent file, and then I’ll rename it, does anyone know how?

@Guilherme_Silva - Please try like this…

Directory.GetFiles("YourFolderpath").OrderBy(function(x) new fileinfo(x).LastWriteTime).First

Hope this helps…
