Sorry to call you out on this but you're spreading misinformation. F:/blah is as much a Windows path as is F:\blah is. Open you cmd.exe and type ``dir F:/blah'' to see that I'm correct. It is only some stupid API like CreateProcess that insist on \ instead of / for the path delimiter. Nearly everything else works with / instead of \.
I thank the community for the correction and for increasing my knowledge of Windows.
