Error while reading a file with GetFileAsync

I have written this line of code: 

file = await Package.Current.InstalledLocation.GetFileAsync("ms-appx:///Images/Hair Cuts/HC_1.jpg");

But it throws this exception:

WinRT information: An item cannot be found with the specified Name
(ms-appx:///Images/Hair Cuts/HC_1.jpg).

This image does exist in the specified folder. Can anyone help?

In order to retrieve the file, try using the code from the MSDN documentation:

using Windows.Storage;

.

StorageFile file = await StorageFile.GetFileFromApplicationUriAsync("ms-appx:///Images/Hair Cuts/HC_1.jpg");
