Check if File or Folder exists Issue

[AB@17]

I have observed a strange issue with "Check if File or Folder exists". It says file exists even if the string is empty.

Hi,

Actually Empty path refers to the mapped drives in the computer. You can check the detailed help for the same.

For the same you should use "<Not a Path>" instead of empty if you are not intended to input a path.

Use Empty path check before checking for Path exists

Please check with this reply from Darren : http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/quot-File-or-Folder-exists-quot-VI-returns-TRUE-if-the-path-is/m-p/4...

The VI itself has the check internally
