How to check if file exists in a Windows Store App?

Question

Is there any other way of checking whether a file exists in a Windows Store app?

try
{
    var file = await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFileAsync(         


        

Answer 1

The other means to check is by getting files in local folder

    var collection =  ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFilesAsync() 

Using this method and then iterating over all the elements in the collection and check for its availability.
