How to open and read .txt file in UWP?

Question

Hi All,

 

How to open and read .txt file in UWP?

 

I am getting "Access denied" error by using below code.

using (OpenFileDialog openFileDialog = new OpenFileDialog())
{
openFileDialog.InitialDirectory = "c:\\";
openFileDialog.Filter = "txt files (*.txt)|*.txt|All files (*.*)|*.*";
openFileDialog.FilterIndex = 2;
openFileDialog.RestoreDirectory = true;
if (openFileDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
//Get the path of specified file
filePath = openFileDialog.FileName;
//Read the contents of the file into a stream
var fileStream = openFileDialog.OpenFile();
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(fileStream))
{
fileContent = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
}
MessageBox.Show(fileContent, "File Content at path: " + filePath, MessageBoxButtons.OK);

Please provide the solution.
