The file in the scanned directory does not exist

Bug

I used react-native-document-picker to select a specific directory. Then, I used react-native-file-access to scan all image files in the directory. However, when validating with FileSystem.exists, the result shows that the file does not exist.

To reproduce
const dir = await DocumentPicker.pickDirectory()
const files = await FileSystem.ls(dir);
const dirForFile = dir
for (const file of files) {
if (isImageFile(file)) {
const filePath = decodeURIComponent(${dirForFile}/${file});
const exist = await FileSystem.exists(filePath);
console.log("filePath", filePath, "exist", exist);
rootPages.push({ fileName: file, filePath });
}
}

output：

Hmm, access to storage outside of the app's sandbox can sometimes be tricky with permissions. Have you checked if you are able to read the file's content/copy the file into internal storage, even if it claims not to exist? I wonder if you got permissions to the folder, but somehow not the files within that folder.
