Why your path has 4 leading blackslashes at all? – Tim Schmelter Mar 07 '18 at 12:34 — Tim Schmelter, Mar 07 '18 at 12:34

@MihirDave The difference is, that your solution also changes paths with \\arvind\ to \arvind\ because you forgot the @ within replace. – M Stoerzel Mar 07 '18 at 13:12

Use this,

string a = @"\\\\arvind\chaudhary\newfolder\";
a = a.Replace(@"\\\\", @"\\");
