    OK, let's assume you start in "D:\Program Files" and run the script. It reads a filename from C:\, let's say temp. Your if tries to verify that the directory temp exists in the current directory, i.e. "D:\Program Files\temp" is a directory, which is false. My if, on the other hand, tries to verify that "C:\temp" is a directory, which is true.
