By “crash” do you mean “throw an exception”?

yep

I see two options: 1. Use directory-exists? first. 2. Do as you do now, but use with-handlers to catch the exception.

ahh k, ill just check if it exists then beforehand

Another option is to always create the directory first whether it exists already by using make-directory*

Of course, it depends on what you want to do. Might not be desirable if you don’t want to create the directory
