Handling the window folder path using javascript

I have a window folder path, example:

var text1 = "C:\Mine\2020\example.txt"

But when I print text1 to console, the result: "C:Mine‚0example.txt"

Note: text1 is information from another place. The above case is just an example.

I tried:

String.raw`${text1}`

The result is still: "C:Mine‚0example.txt"

Only when:

String.raw`C:\Mine\2020\example.txt`

The result is exactly what I need: "C:\Mine\2020\example.txt"

But my input is text1 variable. Is there any way to handle the text1 variable? Thanks for any help!

I guess it's useful

var text1 = "C:\\Mine\\2020\\example.txt"
console.log(text1)

Escape characters my friend.

var text1 = "C:\Mine\2020\example.txt"

Test Code used {

var text1 = "C:\\Mine\\2020\\example.txt";
alert(text1);

}

Result {

 C:\Mine\2020\example.txt

}

If you are unsure about escape characters check the below link. https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_strings.asp
