Check whether a path is valid

Try Uri.IsWellFormedUriString():

  • The string is not correctly escaped.

      http://www.example.com/path???/file name
    
  • The string is an absolute Uri that represents an implicit file Uri.

      c:\\directory\filename
    
  • The string is an absolute URI that is missing a slash before the path.

      file://c:/directory/filename
    
  • The string contains unescaped backslashes even if they are treated as forward slashes.

      http:\\host/path/file
    
  • The string represents a hierarchical absolute Uri and does not contain “://”.

      www.example.com/path/file
    
  • The parser for the Uri.Scheme indicates that the original string was not well-formed.

      The example depends on the scheme of the URI.
