Solution 1

Try printing the value of Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments) + "\\notes.txt") as a string, to see why it is different.

Solution 2

Try this instead:

string pfile = System.IO.Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments), "notes.txt");

using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(pfile);
