All,
I have started coding a system tray utility in Windows 10 & 11 to assist in my daily workload as an Engineer (Not Software). It gives me some responses to APIs in a toast style notification and calculates some minor things.
My issue is that I wish to have a file watchdog that notifies me when a folder is created on our company server. I have no real issue coding the watchdog (But any tips are welcome!), and have no issues with the tray utility, but I have no idea how to make the watchdog run 'within' the systray programme.
My aim is to get the watchdog to raise a notification in the systray utility when a new folder is created, then I can run further code on the back of that, i.e. create a shortcut, add it to my email folders, etc.
I have currently coded the systray utility and have a bare bones plan of how to code the watchdog. Looking to run the watchdog within the systray programme, like a sub-routine (Am I using that right?)
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
