Regularizing a file path in C#

Is there a convenient function to regularize a file path in c#?

I have a command-line program which accepts a file path from the user. If they are being too clever, they might supply something like "c:\\mypath", which c# represents internally as "c:\\\\mypath"

I'd like to process the paths so they are regularized to "c:\\mypath"

I could use a string replace where I replace "\\\\" with "\\", but is there a more elegant platform independent way?
