windows - Back slash causing problems c++

I'm trying to use back slash in C++ in a string like this :

HWND hwnd = FindWindowA(NULL, "C:ExampleApp.exe");

So for this example I would get these errors/warnings :"unknown escape sequence: 'E'" "unknown escape sequence: 'A'" . Since I need to type in the exact name of the window , is there any way to avoid using back slashes or stop the compiler from interpreting them as "escape sequences" ?

You have to escape them properly, C++11 added raw string which eases this thing:

HWND hwnd = FindWindowA(NULL, R"(C:ExampleApp.exe)");

else do it manually:

HWND hwnd = FindWindowA(NULL, "C:\Example\App.exe");
