The exception is thrown here: version(Windows) { alias TypeTuple!(GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ, (SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES*).init, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL | FILE_FLAG_SEQUENTIAL_SCAN, HANDLE.init) defaults; auto h = CreateFileW(std.utf.toUTF16z(name), defaults); cenforce(h != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE, name); // <-- HERE It seems to be related to a Unicode encoding issue, possibly the encoding that the console is using. (I am assuming that getfilename() reads from the console.) It could be about file access rights as well. Ali

Try to declutter your code as much as possible, then print the file name before trying to call File, and take a look at what's inside that string. This is not a solution, but it's a start. Bye, bearophile

I had put next try-catch block yo my code

	void readfile(string name)
	{
		try
		{
			auto filearray = read(name);
			writeln(name);
			
			writeln(filearray);
		}

	catch (Exception e)
		{
		writeln("CATHCHED %s", e.msg);
		}
	}

Am I right with it's place? I get to console only some crap.

After a call to readln, the string returned has termination characters that need to be stripped off. import std.stdio; import std.file; void main() { string name = readln(); while(name[$-1] == '\x0a' || name[$-1] == '\x0d') name.length -= 1; if(name.exists) writeln(name, " exists!"); else { writeln(name, " doesn't exists!"); return; } auto filearray = cast(char[]) read(name); writeln("\n", filearray); }

Good call.
 	string name = readln();

 	while(name[$-1] == '\x0a' || name[$-1] == '\x0d')
 		name.length -= 1;
Or with std.string.chomp: string name = chomp(readln()); Ali -- D Programming Language Tutorial: http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/index.html
