I have never understood Microsoft changing things from one release to
another. In the beginning extensions were IIRC always visible.
Every time I configure a computer I hav
Is there any chance the file has an extension that Windows is hiding?
Can you get True for other files in the folder?
So, it was the extensions all the way ! Apparently the file extension was
hidden by Windows! It now works.
Thank you all for your suggestions and help.

Type 'os.listdir("c:/winnt")' and see what it gives you. I haven't
looked at the code, but I
Just to check, try to do away with the backslashes. Windows will accept
a path with forward slashes just as well:
os.path.exists("c:/winnt/file_name")
Nope, even, with the use of forward slashes in the path, it still returns false
What am I doing wrong here ?
This is driving me nuts!

So
os.path.exists(path) returns false when the path actually exists!
When I do this:
>>> os.path.exists("c:\\winnt\\file_name")
I get this:
>>> False
Actually the file exists in c:\winnt, and I can confirm it exists there, but
os.path.exists isn't returning True, when it should be..
