How to remove the backslash in string using regex in Java?

by 
str = str.replaceAll("\\\\", "");

or 

str = str.replace("\\", "");

replaceAll() treats the first argument as a regex, so you have to double escape the backslash. replace() treats it as a literal string, so you only have to escape it once.
