How to get current path?

I'm trying to get current path of system. I use this statement for this purpose :

String currentPath = System.getProperty("user.dir");

When I run this statement For Example from E:\. I get E:\

but when I run from desktop I get C:\users\zavarghadim\desktop. The last slash (\) missed. Why this happen? In both type I need last slash c:\users\zavargadim\desktop\

Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

Try this

The currentpath is the root folder of your current java project. It can be retrieved by using System Property Function

String currentpath = System.getProperty("user.dir");
System.out.println("current path is:" + currentpath);

It gives you user working directory.

String currentPath = System.getProperty("user.dir");

You need to use getRoot, for getting only root component of this path.

Paths.get(currentPath).getRoot()
