emacs find file at point double backslashes on windows

Question

My problem is that I want to be able to navigate to directories like:

"..\\A\\B\\a.blah"

Currently, when i use the ffap command, it works for:

"../A/B/a.blah"
"..//A//B//a.blah"
"..\A\B\a.blah"

but it doesn't work for

"..\\A\\B\\a.blah"

now I found a mailing list relating to this (here) but this I think solves it only for the backslash. Do I have to add something to my ffap-string-at-point variable?

Here's the value of it currently:

ffap-string-at-point-mode-alist is a variable defined in ‘ffap.el’.
Its value is ((file "--:\\\\${}+<>@-Z_[:alpha:]~*?" "<@" "@>;.,!:")
 (url "--:=&?$+@-Z_[:alpha:]~#,%;*()!'" "^[0-9a-zA-Z]" ":;.,!?")
 (nocolon "--9$+<>@-Z_[:alpha:]~" "<@" "@>;.,!?")
 (machine "-[:alnum:]." "" ".")
 (math-mode ",-:$+<>@-Z_[:lower:]~`" "<" "@>;.,!?`:")
 (latex-mode "--:\\\\$+<>@-Z_[:alpha:]~*?" "<@" "@>;.,!:")
 (tex-mode "--:\\\\$+<>@-Z_[:alpha:]~*?" "<@" "@>;.,!:"))


  This variable may be risky if used as a file-local variable.

Documentation:
Alist of (MODE CHARS BEG END), where MODE is a symbol,
possibly a major-mode name, or one of the symbols
‘file’, ‘url’, ‘machine’, and ‘nocolon’.
Function ‘ffap-string-at-point’ uses the data fields as follows:
1. find a maximal string of CHARS around point,
2. strip BEG chars before point from the beginning,
3. strip END chars after point from the end.
The arguments CHARS, BEG and END are handled as described in
‘skip-chars-forward’.
