Solution 1

System.IO.Directory.GetDirectories will get you directories. You'll need to use GetFiles to work out which ones have images.

In the same scenario
var filename= Directory.GetFiles(name,"*.*",SearchOption.AllDirectories).Where(file => Regex.IsMatch(file, @"^.+\.(wav|mp3|jpg)$"));

its not working.i am not getting any files like folder inside another folder.

I am not sure that AllDirectories does what you hope it to do. I doubt it recurses. You still need to write a method to do that

Solution 2

The question is not quite clearly formulated, but you can use the method System.IO.Directory.GetFiles:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.directory.getfiles.aspx[^].

But this is something you need much more: Microsoft Q209354.

Everything before Regex is correct, check "where" (what is "file"?). As a variant: call GetFiles 3 time for each of file type separately...
