      The bug

      The launcher does not use the OS directory seperation character consistently. It appears it always uses a slash (/) where it creates a directory string itself but in other cases it uses the given one.

      Affected situations

      Slash after drive

      For a profile directory the launcher uses always a slash after the drive. This happens when

      • it fills in the default directory
      • after the user selected a folder with the folder picker. In the text field it first shows the representation the OS uses (for example only backslashes) but after saving and opening the settings again it has a slash after the drive.
      • when pasting in a path then saving and opening the settings again.
      Directories printed in the log and nativelog.txt

      These directories sometimes use only slashes, sometimes only backslashes and then in other situations both.
