So remove the slash and remove the error. Two slashes is normal. It removes one slash because slash is the escape character. What you are seeing is what is supposed to happen.

Solution 2

Number of slashes you want to display in OUTPUT just double it in CODE
e.g. for 2 slashes

System.out.println("D:\\\\"+name+".jpg");

and for 3 add 6

Solution 3

Two slashes is normal. The compiler only takes one of them, because, as said above, one is the escape character. Take for example:

Java

Image myImage=new Image("D:\\image.jpg");

The program knows that it must access the file D:\image.jpg. Delete one slash and you should be ok.
Best of luck.
