How about:

string temp = "\\h\\k";
temp = temp.Replace("\\\\", "\\");

temp.Replace("\\\\", "\\")

That should work.

You need to escape the slashes each time:

temp.Replace("\\\\", "\\")

the question isn't quite clear, are you looking for this?

string temp = @"\\h\\k";
temp = temp.Replace(@"\\", @"\");
