escaping - How to use "" in a string without making it an escape sequence - C#?

Question

I'm sure this is something really basic that I don't know but how do I make it not recognize "" as an escape sequence inside a string

I'm trying to type in a path and it thinks it is an escape sequence

You can use Verbatim String Literals:

//Initialize with a regular string literal.
string oldPath = "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8.0";

// Initialize with a verbatim string literal.
string newPath = @"c:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0";
