    If you want to get newest file from any specific directory, you can use the following source code:

    C# code

    FileInfo GetNewestFile(DirectoryInfo directoryInfo)
{
  return directoryInfo.GetFiles()
      .Union(directoryInfo.GetDirectories().Select(d => GetNewestFile(d)))
      .OrderByDescending(f => (f == null ? DateTime.MinValue : f.LastWriteTime))
      .FirstOrDefault();
}

    VB.Net code

    Function GetNewestFile(ByVal directoryInfo As DirectoryInfo) As FileInfo
 Return directoryInfo.GetFiles()
  .Union(directoryInfo.GetDirectories().Select(d => GetNewestFile(d)))
  .OrderByDescending(f => (f = IIf(Nothing, DateTime.MinValue, f.LastWriteTime)))
  .FirstOrDefault()
End Function

    Happy Coding!!
