Doesn't match any of the locations specified by path.repo because this setting is empty"

[Busra_Duygu (Büşra Duygu)]

Hello friends i have a problem. I can't backup indices.
my elasticsearch.yml file:

# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------
#
# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):
#
path.data: C:/elastic_stack/elasticsearch-7.13.1/lib
#
# Path to log files:
#
path.logs: C:/elastic_stack/elasticsearch-7.13.1/logs
#


path:
  repo:
    - "C://elastic_stack//elasticsearch-7.13.1//esbackup"       

I'm trying from kibana :

PUT /_snapshot/my_backup
{
  "type": "fs",
  "settings": {
    "location": "C://elastic_stack//elasticsearch-7.13.1//esbackup",
    "compress": true
  }
}

Error:

{
  "error" : {
    "root_cause" : [
      {
        "type" : "repository_exception",
        "reason" : "[my_backup] location [C://elastic_stack//elasticsearch-7.13.1//esbackup] doesn't match any of the locations specified by path.repo because this setting is empty"
      }
    ],
    "type" : "repository_exception",
    "reason" : "[my_backup] failed to create repository",
    "caused_by" : {
      "type" : "repository_exception",
      "reason" : "[my_backup] location [C://elastic_stack//elasticsearch-7.13.1//esbackup] doesn't match any of the locations specified by path.repo because this setting is empty"
    }
  },
  "status" : 500
}

Please help me dear friends

Your path separators are leaning the wrong way: on Windows it's \ not /.

[Busra_Duygu (Büşra Duygu)]

It was written on elasticsearch's official site that do not use oblique slash.

Windows installations support both DOS and Microsoft UNC paths. Escaped any backslashes in the paths. For UNC paths, provide the server and share name as a prefix.

path:
repo:
- "E:\Mount\Backups"
- "\\MY_SERVER\Mount\Long_term_backups"

[DavidTurner]

I'm confused, the docs you quote use the correct slash for Windows (\) whereas the config you shared previously uses the wrong one (/).

I am also confused when I use (\) in elasticsearch.yml I cannot run elasticsearch.bat file.
