Cómo usar: Windows Path Converter
- Paste a path in any format — the format is detected automatically.
- Read the path in every other format.
- Copy the one you need; paste several lines to convert them all.
One file, many spellings
- Windows —
C:\Users\me\file.txt, backslashes and a drive letter. - WSL — Windows drives are mounted under
/mnt:/mnt/c/Users/me/file.txt. Inside WSL,wslpathdoes the same conversion. - Git Bash / MSYS2 —
/c/Users/me/file.txt. - Cygwin —
/cygdrive/c/Users/me/file.txt. - file URL —
file:///C:/Users/me/file.txt, with spaces encoded as%20. - Escaped — backslashes doubled for JSON, C#, Java and JavaScript strings (
C:\\Users\\me), or a Python raw stringr"C:\Users\me".
Spaces and special characters
Paths with spaces need quotes in shells — cd "/mnt/c/Program Files" — or escaped spaces (Program\ Files) in Bash. The converter shows a quoted version ready for the terminal.
Network shares
UNC paths such as \\server\share\folder become //server/share/folder with forward slashes and file://server/share/folder as a URL. WSL doesn’t mount network shares automatically; map the share to a drive letter or mount it with mount -t drvfs.

Preguntas frecuentes
How do I convert a Windows path to a WSL path?
Replace the drive letter with /mnt/ and the lowercase letter, and backslashes with slashes: C:\Users\me becomes /mnt/c/Users/me. Inside WSL,
wslpath 'C:\Users\me' does it too.Why do I need double backslashes in code?
In JSON, C#, Java and JavaScript strings a backslash starts an escape sequence (\n, \t), so a literal backslash is written as \\. Forward slashes also work in most Windows APIs.
Does Windows accept forward slashes?
Most Windows programs and APIs accept C:/Users/me, including PowerShell, Node.js, Python and Git. The classic cmd.exe shell is the main exception for some commands.
