Change backslash to forward slash in windows batch file

Question

I\'m trying to convert all backslashes () to forward slashes (/) in a variable which contains a file name and location. I\'ve read about this and seen:

%vari         


        

Answer 1

This will change the back-slashes to forward-slashes in a variable:

set "variable=E:\myfiles\app1\data\*.csv"
set "variable=%variable:\=/%"
echo "%variable%"
