This is my File tree and im trying to access
MOCK_DATA.json from SearchService.cs
Try taking the
../ offit gives me same error
make sure the file exists wherever the app is compiling to
yes checked it and it is
and it's in the same exact folder as the executable/dll?
if so
File.ReadAllText("MOCK_DATA.json"); should work fineyes it is i dont know whats wrong too
looks fine
maybe try debugging a bit, outputting the current directory, listing directory contents through code, seeing if it can see the file, etc
