I think that a problem could arise only if the file is a symlink. In this case, stat() resolves it and returns information about the pointed-to file. It is not very clear what QFileInfo::lastModified() does. Skimming the docs, it maybe does the same, possibly except on native Windows. BTW, what's the problem in considering the file as non existing if stat() does not return 0? -- Enrico
