The object returned from get_property() is apparently a Gio.File, which is some sort of abstraction of a file.
get_path() returns nothing useful (though Google AI help said it returned a readable path). get_uri() produced the folder in the URI form file:\\\c:\.... Since I need the folder path to build full paths to files from, all I could do was remove the scheme prefix using string replace(). I'm certain that isn't the way to do it, and it definitely isn't cross platform, but I haven't found anything better yet. Would be good if there was a method something like get_readable_name(), get_fullpath() or similar, but if there is I haven't found it yet.
