' The return value is one of the following values:
' -1: Unable to check. Examine the LastErrorText to determine the reason for failure.
' 0: File does not exist.
' 1: The regular file exists.
' 2: It exists, but it is a directory.
' 3: It exists, but it is a symlink (only possible if followLinks is false)
' 4: It exists, but it is a special filesystem entry type.
' 5: It exists, but it is an unkown filesystem entry type.
' 6: It exists, but it is an socket filesystem entry type.
' 7: It exists, but it is an char device entry type.
' 8: It exists, but it is an block device entry type.
' 9: It exists, but it is an FIFO entry type.
