I am writing a C# program which reads certain tags from files and based on tag values it creates a directory structure.

Now there could be anything in those tags,

If the tag name is not suitable for a directory name I have to prepare it to make it suitable by replacing those characters with anything suitable. So that directory creation does not fail.
I was using following code but I realised this is not enough.. 

path = path.replace("/","-");
path = path.replace("\\","-");

please advise what’s the best way to do it..

thanks,

    You can use the full list of invalid characters here to handle the replacement as desired. These are available directly via the Path.GetInvalidFileNameChars and Path.GetInvalidPathChars methods.
