XDocument.XPathSelectElements doesn't work as expected

Sometimes C# driving me crazy, guys :) !
I tried a very simple code:
String pathToXMLFile = openFileDialog2.FileName;
var xdoc = XDocument.Load(pathToXMLFile);
var xElements = xdoc.XPathSelectElements("//NotificationData");
foreach (XElement xe in xElements)
{
Console.WriteLine(xe);
xe.RemoveAll();
}
xdoc.Save("c:/Temp/ReestrZalogovRuManyCollateralItemsSimple_output.xml");
and a very simple XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

The problem is xdoc.XPathSelectElements in this code doesn't return any Elements.
I thought, may be I haven't yet woken up and tried to test my XML and XPath in the first site in Google for XPath online evulation - https://www.freeformatter.com/xpath-tester.html and my XPath //NotificationData works with this XML like a charm.
But why it doesn't work in C#? :)
Thank you in advance!

SelectNodes does not return the child values

I am new to XPath. I read the entire W3Schools tutorial. I would like to get all the <schedule> nodes of my document. I can get all the child elements of my document with child::* but as soon as I add <schedule> like the following, I get zero results:
XmlDocument dom = new XmlDocument();
dom.Load(textBoxFilePath.Text);
XmlNodeList jobElements = dom.DocumentElement.SelectNodes("child::schedule");
This is my xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- This file contains job definitions in schema version 2.0 format -->
<job-scheduling-data version="2.0" xmlns="http://quartznet.sourceforge.net/JobSchedulingData" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<processing-directives>
<overwrite-existing-data>true</overwrite-existing-data>
</processing-directives>
<schedule>
<job>
<name>receiverjob</name>
<group>receivergroup</group>
<job-type>Quartz.Server.ArgumentReceiverJob, Quartz.Server</job-type>
<job-data-map>
<entry>
<key>receivedargument</key>
<value>hamburger</value>
</entry>
</job-data-map>
</job>
<trigger>
<simple>
<name>argumentreceiverJobTrigger</name>
<group>argumentreceiverGroup</group>
<description>Simple trigger to simply fire sample job</description>
<job-name>receiverjob</job-name>
<job-group>receivergroup</job-group>
<misfire-instruction>SmartPolicy</misfire-instruction>
<repeat-count>-1</repeat-count>
<repeat-interval>10000</repeat-interval>
</simple>
</trigger>
<job>
<name>batchjob</name>
<group>batchGroup</group>
<job-type>Quartz.Server.BatchJob, Quartz.Server</job-type>
<durable>true</durable>
<recover>false</recover>
</job>
<trigger>
<cron>
<name>Trigger2</name>
<group>DEFAULT</group>
<job-name>batchjob</job-name>
<job-group>batchGroup</job-group>
<cron-expression>0/15 * * * * ?</cron-expression>
</cron>
</trigger>
</schedule>
</job-scheduling-data>
What I would ultimately like to achieve is to get all the <name>s of the <job>s that match a string.

That's because your XML has default namespace :
xmlns="http://quartznet.sourceforge.net/JobSchedulingData"
Register a prefix that points to default namespace, then use that prefix along with the element's local name to reference an element in namespace :
XmlDocument dom = new XmlDocument();
dom.Load(textBoxFilePath.Text);
XmlNamespaceManager nsManager = new XmlNamespaceManager(dom.NameTable);
nsManager.AddNamespace("d", dom.DocumentElement.NamespaceURI);
XmlNodeList jobElements = dom.DocumentElement.SelectNodes("child::d:schedule", nsManager);
.NET fiddle demo

You could use the following code to find all schedule elements.
XmlDocument dom = new XmlDocument();
dom.Load(textBoxFilePath.Text);
XmlNodeList jobElements = dom.GetElementsByTagName("schedule");

Reading an innertext from an xml document

How do I get the innertext of the OverallResult element using SelectSingleNode?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Body>
<ProcessResp xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
<Result>
<OverallResult>Success</OverallResult>

var doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.LoadXml(xml);
var text = doc.SelectSingleNode("Example/Node/text()").InnerText; // or .Value
returns
"Some text here\r\n "
and text.Trim() returns
"Some text here"
Please go through the below link for XML related queries its very useful for begginers!
http://www.dotnetcurry.com/ShowArticle.aspx?ID=564
for your answer(i havnt tried it though try by changing like this in ur code)
doc.SelectSingleNode("soap/ProcessResp/ Result/OverallResult/text()").InnerText;

XML Canonicalisation in C#

I am trying to create a canonical form of an XML input by using an XPATH expression however I am not sure if I can receiving the correct output form the document.
I am using this expression at the moment but I am expected to be able to use the second one shown however this returns no results.
I add this namespace otherwise the top does not work either
xmlnsManager.AddNamespace("x", "http://www.mytest.uk/tester");
Current XPATH -
x:testApplications/descendant-or-self::node()|//x:testApplications//#*
Expected XPATH -
/testApplicationsBatch/testApplications|/testApplicaitonsBatch/testApplications//*
In XPathVisualizer the expected path gives me the correct output however in .NET it does not.

Using Linq to XML how do i navigate to the items?
Thanks
Sp
I have tried a few things like
XDocument Leads = XDocument.Load(#"C:\Users\Steven.Pentleton\AppData\Local\Temporary Projects\PAALeadImport\PAAExmple.xml");
var Lead = (from L in Leads.Descendants("Lead")
select new { LeadType = (string)L.Element("Reference") }).ToList();
var S = Lead.First();
string T = S.LeadType;

Are you looking for XDcoument or XElement in linq
Namespace: using System.Xml.Linq;

I guess you are looking for a Linq To Xml guide
