RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

The main motive of the project is to make an Integrated tool in which we can use all the software simultaneously like Format, Protection , Detection , Information , Explore , Delete..

7.1 Initial Project Undertaken

Implementing this project was the major task to be accomplished by this project . Firstly we developed the code using c sharp and .NetFramework using Visual Studio.The Graphical User Interface(GUI) displayed on Visual Studio provides the options of Direct dropping of buttons and label . C# is a language in its own right. Although it is designed to generate code that targets the .NET environment, it is not itself part of .NET. There are some features that are supported by .NET but not by C#, and you might be surprised to learn that there are actually features of the C# language that are not supported by .NET (for example operator overloading)! However, since the C# language is intended for use with .NET, it is important for us to have an understanding of this Framework if we wish to develop applications in C# effectively.
