Then you are using the wrong dialog, as it can only return directories
that do exist.

That is what the dialog is designed to do.

You don't.  That box is not for your code to use at all.  It is only
for the user to use.  The dialog only returns the final folder that is
selected.  An ITEMIDLIST cannot point to a non-existant item.
