So I would like to be able to add a string after the last backslash of a string

Example:

string1 = C:UsersAdminOneDriveDesktopText File.txt



string2 = "My"

I want to add string2 after the last backslash of string1

result = C:UsersAdminOneDriveDesktopMy Text File.txt

                                         ^

if this is specifically about strings that are file system paths, consider using filesystem related library functions of the runtime environment of whatever operating system you are coding for. with portability in mind, you would for example split by or / this is best left to FS abstraction.

Or even better, to avoid any dependency, if you can use c++17: en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/filesystem (see what I did here @YSC)
