• i've used Test-Path to see if files or folders exist, and make a decision from there to do my logic; create files, process files, copy them or whatever.

    #the detail file of this database:

    $filename = $dir + $NiceServerName + '\'

    if (!(Test-Path -path $filename))

    {

    New-Item $filename -type directory

    }
