最准确的方法是使用shlwapi.dll中的一些互操作代码

[DllImport(SHLWAPI, CharSet = CharSet.Unicode)]
[return: MarshalAsAttribute(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
[ResourceExposure(ResourceScope.None)]
internal static extern bool PathIsDirectory([MarshalAsAttribute(UnmanagedType.LPWStr), In] string pszPath);

然后你可以这样调用它:

#region IsDirectory
/// <summary>
/// Verifies that a path is a valid directory.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="path">The path to verify.</param>
/// <returns><see langword="true"/> if the path is a valid directory; 
/// otherwise, <see langword="false"/>.</returns>
/// <exception cref="T:System.ArgumentNullException">
/// <para><paramref name="path"/> is <see langword="null"/>.</para>
/// </exception>
/// <exception cref="T:System.ArgumentException">
/// <para><paramref name="path"/> is <see cref="F:System.String.Empty">String.Empty</see>.</para>
/// </exception>
public static bool IsDirectory(string path)
{
    return PathIsDirectory(path);
}

在结合其他答案的建议后，我意识到我得到了和罗尼·奥弗比的答案差不多的东西。以下是一些测试，指出一些需要考虑的问题:

文件夹可以有扩展名:C:\Temp\folder_with.dot 文件不能以目录分隔符(斜杠)结束 从技术上讲，有两个特定于平台的目录分隔符——也就是说，可能是斜杠，也可能不是。和Path.AltDirectorySeparatorChar)

测试(Linqpad)

var paths = new[] {
    // exists
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\folder_is_a_dir",
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\is_a_dir_trailing_slash\",
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\existing_folder_with.ext",
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\file_thats_not_a_dir",
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\notadir.txt",
    // doesn't exist
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\dne_folder_is_a_dir",
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\dne_folder_trailing_slash\",
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\non_existing_folder_with.ext",
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\dne_file_thats_not_a_dir",
    @"C:\Temp\dir_test\dne_notadir.txt",        
};

foreach(var path in paths) {
    IsFolder(path/*, false*/).Dump(path);
}

结果

C:\Temp\dir_test\folder_is_a_dir
  True 
C:\Temp\dir_test\is_a_dir_trailing_slash\
  True 
C:\Temp\dir_test\existing_folder_with.ext
  True 
C:\Temp\dir_test\file_thats_not_a_dir
  False 
C:\Temp\dir_test\notadir.txt
  False 
C:\Temp\dir_test\dne_folder_is_a_dir
  True 
C:\Temp\dir_test\dne_folder_trailing_slash\
  True 
C:\Temp\dir_test\non_existing_folder_with.ext
  False (this is the weird one)
C:\Temp\dir_test\dne_file_thats_not_a_dir
  True 
C:\Temp\dir_test\dne_notadir.txt
  False

    // if it has an extension it should be a file, so vice versa
    // although technically directories can have extensions...
    if (!Path.HasExtension(path) && assumeDneLookAlike)
        return true;

    // only works for existing files, kinda redundant with `.Exists` above

}

如果你想找到目录，包括那些标记为“hidden”和“system”的目录，试试这个(需要。net V4):

FileAttributes fa = File.GetAttributes(path);
if(fa.HasFlag(FileAttributes.Directory)) 

这是我所能想到的最好的Exists和Attributes属性的行为:

using System.IO;

public static class FileSystemInfoExtensions
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Checks whether a FileInfo or DirectoryInfo object is a directory, or intended to be a directory.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="fileSystemInfo"></param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public static bool IsDirectory(this FileSystemInfo fileSystemInfo)
    {
        if (fileSystemInfo == null)
        {
            return false;
        }

        if ((int)fileSystemInfo.Attributes != -1)
        {
            // if attributes are initialized check the directory flag
            return fileSystemInfo.Attributes.HasFlag(FileAttributes.Directory);
        }

        // If we get here the file probably doesn't exist yet.  The best we can do is 
        // try to judge intent.  Because directories can have extensions and files
        // can lack them, we can't rely on filename.
        // 
        // We can reasonably assume that if the path doesn't exist yet and 
        // FileSystemInfo is a DirectoryInfo, a directory is intended.  FileInfo can 
        // make a directory, but it would be a bizarre code path.

        return fileSystemInfo is DirectoryInfo;
    }
}

下面是测试结果:

    [TestMethod]
    public void IsDirectoryTest()
    {
        // non-existing file, FileAttributes not conclusive, rely on type of FileSystemInfo
        const string nonExistentFile = @"C:\TotallyFakeFile.exe";

        var nonExistentFileDirectoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(nonExistentFile);
        Assert.IsTrue(nonExistentFileDirectoryInfo.IsDirectory());

        var nonExistentFileFileInfo = new FileInfo(nonExistentFile);
        Assert.IsFalse(nonExistentFileFileInfo.IsDirectory());

        // non-existing directory, FileAttributes not conclusive, rely on type of FileSystemInfo
        const string nonExistentDirectory = @"C:\FakeDirectory";

        var nonExistentDirectoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(nonExistentDirectory);
        Assert.IsTrue(nonExistentDirectoryInfo.IsDirectory());

        var nonExistentFileInfo = new FileInfo(nonExistentDirectory);
        Assert.IsFalse(nonExistentFileInfo.IsDirectory());

        // Existing, rely on FileAttributes
        const string existingDirectory = @"C:\Windows";

        var existingDirectoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(existingDirectory);
        Assert.IsTrue(existingDirectoryInfo.IsDirectory());

        var existingDirectoryFileInfo = new FileInfo(existingDirectory);
        Assert.IsTrue(existingDirectoryFileInfo.IsDirectory());

        // Existing, rely on FileAttributes
        const string existingFile = @"C:\Windows\notepad.exe";

        var existingFileDirectoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(existingFile);
        Assert.IsFalse(existingFileDirectoryInfo.IsDirectory());

        var existingFileFileInfo = new FileInfo(existingFile);
        Assert.IsFalse(existingFileFileInfo.IsDirectory());
    }

作为directory . exists()的替代方法，你可以使用file . getattributes()方法来获取文件或目录的属性，所以你可以创建一个像这样的helper方法:

private static bool IsDirectory(string path)
{
    System.IO.FileAttributes fa = System.IO.File.GetAttributes(path);
    return (fa & FileAttributes.Directory) != 0;
}

在填充包含该项的附加元数据的控件时，还可以考虑向TreeView控件的tag属性添加对象。例如，您可以为文件添加FileInfo对象，为目录添加DirectoryInfo对象，然后在tag属性中测试项目类型，以避免在单击项目时进行额外的系统调用以获取数据。

从如何判断路径是文件还是目录:

// get the file attributes for file or directory
FileAttributes attr = File.GetAttributes(@"c:\Temp");

//detect whether its a directory or file
if ((attr & FileAttributes.Directory) == FileAttributes.Directory)
    MessageBox.Show("Its a directory");
else
    MessageBox.Show("Its a file");

更新。net 4.0+

根据下面的评论，如果你使用的是。net 4.0或更高版本(最大性能不是关键)，你可以用更简洁的方式编写代码:

// get the file attributes for file or directory
FileAttributes attr = File.GetAttributes(@"c:\Temp");

if (attr.HasFlag(FileAttributes.Directory))
    MessageBox.Show("Its a directory");
else
    MessageBox.Show("Its a file");
