      getCanonicalPath() states that a canonical path may not be defined for
      a non existant file. On Win32, an exception is thrown. This presents
      a challenge when attempting to grant permission to an applet to create/write
      to a file that doesn't exist, in that it is challenging to determine if
      the applet is granted access to the file.
