Quick question about Vista....

Will Vista come with file system transactions, or was this only a
consequence of the now not-shipping winFS?

i.e. will I be able to:

Try

    FileSystem.BeginTransaction()

    File.Delete ( myFile )
    File.Copy ( fileA, fileB )

    FileSystem.CommitTransaction ()

Catch Ex as Exception

    FileSystem.RollbackTransaction ()

End Try
