Perl doesn't care whether you use forward or backward slashes on Windows, even most system call accept forward slashes (if you played with Win32::API or FFI or XS). Only the shell has problems with forward slashes. So unless you use system(), backticks, Win32::Process::Create, open(PIPE, '|somecommand path\to\file') or something similar the type of slashes doesn't matter.
