Description Yuki 2017-06-10 03:26:17 UTC 
Kate supports a menu to copy file path into clipboard, but the characters of path separator are converted from back slash to front slash automatically on windows.
Kate should keep original characters of path separator during copy.
Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2017-06-10 10:16:38 UTC 
Does the clipboard text include the file:// prefix?
Comment 2 Yuki 2017-06-10 15:46:51 UTC 
File path text is converted like following

D:\Downloads\desktop.ini  --->   D:/Downloads/desktop.ini

Text in clipboard doesn't contain file:// prefix
