    Have followed this and found that there is no such thing in the package as fileData.FilePath. If I comment out that line of code then it works, :-) but then of course I have no path to the chosen file. :-( Is there something missing from this blog post? (I managed to find the 2 "using" statements I needed, which weren't included here, but still nothing about FilePath)

    i am getting error:-

    This functionality is not implemented in the portable version of this assembly. You should reference the NuGet package from your main application project in order to reference the platform-specific implementation

    Hello, I read your blog occasionally, and I own a similar one, and I was just wondering if you get a lot of spam remarks? If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it’s driving me insane, so any assistance is very much appreciated.
