The system cannot find the file specified in java

You need to give the absolute pathname to where the file exists.

        File file = new File("C:\\Users\\User\\Documents\\Workspace\\FileRead\\hello.txt");

Try to list all files' names in the directory by calling:

File file = new File(".");
for(String fileNames : file.list()) System.out.println(fileNames);

and see if you will find your files in the list.

I have copied your code and it runs fine.

I suspect you are simply having some problem in the actual file name of hello.txt, or you are running in a wrong directory. Consider verifying by the method suggested by @Eng.Fouad
