You can't retain the value of a file upload control, it will be empty every time the page is rendered. Why do you want to retain it's value ?

The file does not get uploaded when the page is refreshed, it is uploaded only when the page is submitted, that is why it gets cleared after a submit.

Solution 6

Use enctype="multipart/form-data" in form tag.

<form id="form1" runat="server" enctype="multipart/form-data"> This maintain your value.
