Examples

This example shows you how to use the FutureAccessList property to store a file that was picked by the user so that you can access it again later.

var openPicker = new Windows.Storage.Pickers.FileOpenPicker();
openPicker.pickSingleFileAsync().then(function (pickedFile) {
    if (pickedFile) {
        // Store the file to access again later
        var listToken = Windows.Storage.AccessCache.StorageApplicationPermissions.futureAccessList.add(pickedFile);

        // Add code to process the file that the user picked
    } else {
        // No file
    }
});

Make sure you check that a file was picked before you process the pickedFile (a StorageFile object), as shown in the example.
