 DirectoryInfo dInfo = new DirectoryInfo(path)
 DirectoryInfo[] directoryInfos = dInfo.GetDirectories();

How can i iterate directoryInfos and select the newest folder?

am looking for the NAME of the newest folder

Answer 1

One of two ways – not sure which is the ‘best’:

var newest1 = directoryInfos.FirstOrDefault(di => di.CreationTime == directoryInfos.Max(d => d.CreationTime));

or

var newest2 = directoryInfos.OrderByDescending(di => di.CreationTime).FirstOrDefault();
