WalkthroughThe file target now closes missing streams, retries eligible write failures, avoids duplicate appender closure during archive rolling, handles archive deletion errors, and validates shared-writer archive rotation.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up because its integration tests can leave shared logging settings changed and may retain file handles or temporary directories when they fail, potentially affecting later tests.

- Line 810: Correct the positional format token in the InternalLogger.Warn call
so the write-failure warning uses {1} for ms.Length instead of the malformed
{1].
- Around line 806-815: The retry branch in WriteBytesToFile must not replay the
full ms buffer after an unclassified IOException from IFileAppender.Write or
Flush, since partial commits can duplicate output. Remove or restrict the
KeepFileOpen recovery retry to exceptions that guarantee zero bytes were
committed, unless IFileAppender is extended with a reliable committed-byte
contract; add coverage for prefix-write and Flush exceptions.
In `@tests/NLog.Targets.AtomicFile.Tests/AtomicFileTests.cs`:
- Line 144: Update the test around the Slow2 write in the
ExclusiveFileLockingAppender scenario to advance the test time source past the
one-second deletion-check threshold, or wait longer than one second before
logging Slow2, ensuring the recovery branch is deterministically exercised.

- Line 167: Update the warning in the recovery branch of
ExclusiveFileLockingAppender so it accurately states that _fileStream is being
closed and a FileNotFoundException will be thrown, rather than claiming a
FileStream is recreated. Preserve the existing recovery behavior and only revise
the misleading log message.

When having a mixture of very busy and very slow writers. Then the busy writers will drive the rolling file-sequence-number up, and actually starts doing cleanup of log-files still open by slow-writers. Because the slow-writer still have the open file-handle, then the file is not actually fully deleted and one can query the filesize (but file is not visible).
This gives a combination of slow-writers that detects their log-file is gone or detects their log-filesize has been breached, and both cases causes them to roll, but they fail to recognize that the file-sequence-number has jumped, and they actually must fallback to enumerating all files in the directory to correctly catch up.
