C# - "Illegal Characters in Path" File.ReadAllLines

    public void LoadRegionMaps()
    {
        for (int x = 9; x < 10; x++)
        {
            for (int y = 9; y < 10; y++)
            {
                string path = RegionData[x, y, 1];
                System.Console.Write("Opening File...");

                if(path != "0")
                {
                    System.Console.Write(path);
                    string[] fileText = File.ReadAllLines(path);

The paths in the .txt file look like this:

"..\\Bin\\Assets\\WorldMap\\Regions\\Forest.txt"

I've tried changing it to

@"..\\Bin\\Assets\\WorldMap\\Regions\\Forest.txt"

Neither work.

Both result in the error in the title, during the last line of code I showed.

path = "..\\Bin\\Assets\\WorldMap\\Regions\\Forest.txt"

Works.

RegionData is a string array, holding the above filepaths.

Remove the double \\ on the file and the ". \\ is a escape sequence that translates to \ on C#, but that does not apply to data read from a file unless you code for that.

..\Bin\Assets\WorldMap\Regions\Forest.txt
