# FTPConnection.DirectoryExists Method

Tests if the given directory exists.

public virtual bool DirectoryExists(
string remoteDirectory
);

#### Parameters

remoteDirectory

#### Return Value

`true` if directory exists and false otherwise

#### Remarks

The FTP protocol doesn't specify a standard way of testing for the existence of a directory, so this method tries to change into the directory and assumes that that the directory doesn't exist if an exception is thrown. The current working directory is restored before the method returns.
