Scripting with Photorec on Windows 10: Foward or back slash?

#1 Post by europa »

Hi,

Im trying to create a script that recovers files in Windows using Photorec.

Should I use foward slash or back slash for the paths in Windows?

Foward slash

Code: Select all

photorec_win.exe /debug /log /logname file.log /d C:/Users/user/Documents/cases/1568795/QuickImageForensicsWPF/1568795_2020_5060_90_1_sofias_pc/photorec /cmd C:/Users/user/Documents/image_files/1568795/1568795_2020_5060_90_1_sofias_pc/1568795_2020_5060_90_1_sofias_pc.001 search
Back slash

Code: Select all

photorec_win.exe /debug /log /logname file.log /d C:\Users\user\Documents\cases\1568795\QuickImageForensicsWPF\1568795_2020_5060_90_1_sofias_pc\photorec /cmd C:\Users\user\Documents\image_files\1568795\1568795_2020_5060_90_1_sofias_pc\1568795_2020_5060_90_1_sofias_pc.001 search
