Check if path is on network

Question

In my app I have a dialog in which the user can select a database backup location.
I want to warn the user if the location he/she selected is \"probably not secure\".

Answer 1

Take a look at the PathIsNetworkPath function:

class Program
{
    [DllImport("shlwapi.dll")]
    private static extern bool PathIsNetworkPath(string pszPath);

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(PathIsNetworkPath("i:\Backup"));
    }
}
