I think the "\" on Windows 10, at least, is happily also "/" in many 
situations. 
There are global substitutions going on to do with MS wanting to share, I 
think.

If you run "Get-ChildItem Env:" in PS5 you get interesting things like this 
showing up ...

USERPROFILE                    C:\Users\Josiah                              
                                                                            
       
USERPROFILE:DoubleBackslash    C:\\Users\\Josiah                            
                                                                            
       
USERPROFILE:Forwardslash       C:/Users/Josiah                              
                                                                            
       
USERPROFILE:java.util.prefs    /C:///Users///Josiah
