Replace/remove every backslash in a string

Question

I am trying to remove every backslash of a string for an hour, but I cannot make it work.

Here is my string for instance:

[{\"file\":\"https:\\/n-adsadele.stjkwgjkw.co\/adwq

Here is what I tried:

const replaced = toString.replace(String.fromCharCode(92), String.fromCharCode(32));
const replaced = toString.replace("\\\\", "");
const replaced = toString.replace("\\", "");
const replaced = toString.replace(/\\/, "");

All of this does absolutely nothing.

This sounds similar: https://stackoverflow.com/q/1144783/2430549 — HoldOffHunger, Sep 25 '18 at 18:19

It doesnt work, but (/\\/g, "") does work, I just forgot the g for global — Jerlam, Sep 25 '18 at 18:23

You could use regex simply like :

var toString = '[{\"file\":\"https:\\/n-adsadele.stjkwgjkw.co\/adwq';

console.log(toString.replace(/\\/g, ""));

Ah, I think if it didn't work that may mean the problem comes from something else since you could see that it work well in the snippet. – Zakaria Acharki Sep 25 '18 at 18:20
