# Description
Currently `path exists` checks the file/folder's existence by traversing
symlinks. I've added a `-n` switch/flag that disables symlink
traversing, similar to what `path expand -n` does.
## The Long Story (for those interested)
Hello! 👋 While working on one of my scripts, I discovered that the `path
exists` command was traversing symlinks. This meant that even if the
file existed, it would fail if the pointed location didn't exist. To
address this, I've introduced a new `-n` flag, which I borrowed from the
`path expand` command. This addition should make the behavior more
consistent within the *path commands universe*.
## But, is it any useful?
```nushell
let compat = /run/media/userX/DriveX/steam/steamapps/compatdata
if "symlink" == ($compat | path expand -n | path type) {}
# to this
if ($compat | path exists -n) {}
```
# User-Facing Changes
Users, will not efect. Unless they use the mentioned `-n` flag/switch.
