I think you can try accessing options under the LocalFolder under your appData. For example there are methods like CreateFile, GetFileAsync, OpenFileAsync etc.

await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.CreateFileAsync(fileName, CreationCollisionOption.ReplaceExisting);

Try using GetFileAsync and based whether you get a valid o/p or hit exceptions you can move forward with what you want to do.
