Hello teknokrat,
the fact that c:/ is written as c\:/ in a property file belongs to the
spec of properties in Java. The : character is always escaped in
property files.
Do you use the property file that you generate using <propertyfile/>
also with a Java program, or is it consumed by something else, such as
a shell script ?
Regards,
Antoine

Subject: how do i use propertyfile on windows?
When ever I use the propertyfile task to add a filepath on windows
it escapes the colon in front of the drive e.g. c:/ turns to c\:/
which completely messes up the path. How do I make it stop escaping
characters?
It is consumed by another program
well, I'm afraid that you can't use propertyfile, which uses
java.util.properties. The examples in the manual show how : chars get
prefixed -this is by design in java classes.
why not just use <echo> to print something to a file?
