Mercury New Member Dec 29, 2022 #1 Hi guys! I'am pretty new in B4A, so sorry for my probably "stupid" question. Problem: My .txt files added to project via Files Manager in IDE is missing after instalation (Debug same as Release). When I copy them manually to the instalation folder then I can access to them easily with GetSafeDirDefaultExternal and everything work just fine. But what I'am missing here? Why they're not included in my installation package? Thanks for any advice

You can do some things eg File.ReadString but not File.Size. No, I'm not kidding you: https://www.b4x.com/android/help/files.html#file_size Upvote 0
