Examples
This example shows you how to access basic properties of a file using the GetBasicPropertiesAsync method of a StorageFile object:
BasicProperties basicProperties = await storageFile.GetBasicPropertiesAsync();
ulong size = basicProperties.Size;
You must have a StorageFile object (storageFile in the example) that represents your file in order to invoke the storageFile.GetBasicPropertiesAsync method.
Remarks
This method will return E_ILLEGAL_METHOD_CALL if there are other async operations in progress on the same IStorageItem instance. Make sure that another thread isn't modifying the IStorageItem at the same time.
