@OP: Are you the same as the person in this thread:
...Never mind you must be.
All you need is in the File class:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/io/File.html
and especially this method:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/io/File.html#listFiles()
which will return an array of File objects which represent the file and directory listing of a particular folder (use it on you F:/ folder!). Iterate over that array and if you encounter a directory (use File's isDirectory() method) you can inspect that directory for the existence of your pps file.
