I am now starting to use PowerShell and after a lot of time using the Unix shells and want to know how to check for the existence of a file or directory.
In Powershell why does `Exist` return false in the following expression?
PS H:\> ([System.IO.FileInfo]"C:\").Exists
False
And is there a better way to check if a file is a directory than:
PS H:\> ([System.IO.FileInfo]"C:\").Mode.StartsWith("d")
True
