Path.GetRandomFileName Method ()
.NET Framework (current version)
Returns a random folder name or file name.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
The GetRandomFileName method returns a cryptographically strong, random string that can be used as either a folder name or a file name. Unlike GetTempFileName, GetRandomFileName does not create a file. When the security of your file system is paramount, this method should be used instead of GetTempFileName.
