Can anyone Please tell me how to implement this in c# .net?

C# Solutions

Solution 1 - C#

string[] files = 
    Directory.GetFiles(txtPath.Text, "*ProfileHandler.cs", SearchOption.AllDirectories);

That last parameter effects exactly what you're referring to. Set it to AllDirectories for every file including in subfolders, and set it to TopDirectoryOnly if you only want to search in the directory given and not subfolders.

Refer to MDSN for details: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143316(v=vs.110).aspx

Solution 2 - C#

try below code

Directory.GetFiles(txtFolderPath.Text, "*ProfileHandler.cs",SearchOption.AllDirectories)

Solution 3 - C#

You can have a look at this page showing Deep Folder Copy, it uses recursive means to iterate throught the files and has some really nice tips, like filtering techniques etc.
