How to StringReplace a '\' with AutoHotkey?

Answer 1

I get no error using that line. I used the following snippet to test:

CapsLock & p::
clipboard = are\there\backslashes?
MsgBox, %clipboard%
StringReplace, clipboard, clipboard, \, /, All
MsgBox, %clipboard%
return 

I'm using AutoHotKey 1.0.46.1 (which is probably old by now...) on a Windows XP laptop.

What version are you using?
