The System.IO.File, System.IO.Directory, System.IO.FileInfo classes "Mr.Expert" suggested above are fine for copying and deleting individual files.

But if you are deleting/copying large number of files you are probably better off using an alternative method see this question I asked previous..

The System.IO.Directory.GetFiles can cause a performance issue when dealing with large number of files.
