Namespace:  System.IO.IsolatedStorage
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
<ComVisibleAttribute(True)> _
Public NotInheritable Class IsolatedStorageFile _
    Inherits IsolatedStorage _
    Implements IDisposable
Visual Basic (Usage)
Dim instance As IsolatedStorageFile
C#
[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public sealed class IsolatedStorageFile : IsolatedStorage, 
    IDisposable
Visual C++
[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public ref class IsolatedStorageFile sealed : public IsolatedStorage, 
    IDisposable

Remarks

This object corresponds to a specific isolated storage scope, where files represented by IsolatedStorageFileStream objects exist. Applications can use isolated storage to save data in their own isolated portion of the file system, without having to specify a particular path within the file system. Since isolated stores are scoped to particular assemblies, most other managed code will not be able to access your code's data (highly trusted managed code and administration tools can access stores from other assemblies). Unmanaged code can access any isolated stores.
