Hi peter,
How to check the filesystemwatcher is disconnected or connected on shared folder monitoring. Please give solution for this and how to reboot the filesystemwatcher to monitor the folder

The FileSystemWatcher is a class. When instantiated, it starts monitoring and doesn't stop until the instantiated object is disposed. You can find numerous examples of code that uses this with a simple google search. One common usage is to have this run inside a custom Windows Service that you write.
