You may not have to. Many Windows programs that deal with paths will accept
the '/' character as a path separator.
If you do need to change '/' to '\':
$path =~ s{ / }{\\}gx;
is probably the best way. Remember that the replacement string of the
substitution operator is a double-quote string context, and '\' is a
meta-character, so needs to be doubled. The x modifier ignores whitespace in
the pattern part, but not the replacement part.
