>>> s = 'c\u'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<interactive input>", line 1
SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 1-2: truncated \uXXXX escape

For path in Windows never single \ because of escape character.
Turn all around / is a simple way to fix it and remember.

 >>> s = 'c/u'
>>> s
'c/u'
