Strange behaviour from System.IO.DirectoryInfo. Exists function
<p>I am developing an application using c# and asp.  It need to access some places in the local network . There is a text box in the form which accept the path to be accessed from the user and will store it to a string variable named location.</p>

<p>The if loop always return false if the application run in windows 7. and  it occurs only when I run from the installed application, otherwise it will return true if the path is true. Here is the code:</p>

<p>The input to textbox BackupLocation is like this </p>

<pre><code> \\192.168.0.33\Others (F)
</code></pre>

<p>. It work fine  if the  application is hosted on a system   which have windows XP </p>

<pre><code> System.IO.DirectoryInfo locationInfo = new System.IO.DirectoryInfo(BackupLocationTxt.Text);
        if (locationInfo.Exists) // always return false  if the application run in windows 7
       {

       }
</code></pre>

<p>Why this happens ?</p>
