    Notepad puts Y instead of \


    When I'm making a .bat file, the computer automatically puts some weird letter 'Y' as '\' but when I copy and paste the weird looking 'Y' lets say in this thread post it pastes as '\'.
    As some pictures are posted.

    Notepad puts Y instead of \ [​IMG]


    This is my Font Settings in Notepad:

    Notepad puts Y instead of \ [​IMG]



    So will the command still work when its the weird looking 'Y'? or will I need '\' to make the command work? and if so I may I fix the problem to make weird looking 'Y' change to '\'?

    :)
