#1582 closed bug (Fixed)
Wrong path separator returned when moving storage in Windows

Description
Using the file dialog screen, the save path for a torrent gets saved with backward slashes (as visible in the 'Save Path' column). But when the location is changed afterwards using the file dialog screen those back slashes become forward slashes.

Yes, it needs changing in the 'Save Path' column. If what you mean by StatusBar is the lower part of the screen with the tabs, then the File tab over there is OK (it uses a tree structure with appended forward slashes), but the Details tab also contains the wrong slashes in the 'path' entry.

I see what the problem is now and found libtorrent returns the wrong path separator in Windows but I can apply a workaround for the next release.

Fixed in 1.3-stable: 52f89270



The solution is to remove the slash altogether rather than mess around with changing which slash is shown on windows/*nix.
This will need changing for 'Files Tab' in both 'Add Torrents' and StatusBar
