The toolkit StorageFileHelper still lacks many common file functions that are found in other Microsoft storage APIs.
Describe the solution
It would be nice if the StorageFileHelper had more features for common file-system operations, such as checking if a directory exists, creating a directory if it does not exist, and copying a file from one directory to another.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I have tried using other storage APIs, however these APIs are not authorized to operate inside StorageFolder KnownFolder locations (such as the user's documents library) in a UWP app.
