Can't create/write to file (Errcode: 22)

It looks like the back-slashes may be affecting the command. Try using '\\' instead of '\'.

    Quite new with SQL I'm looking to export some data from a MySQL database into a csv file. I'm working locally (localhost).

    Here is my SQL statement:

    SELECT DISTINCT *
    INTO
    OUTFILE 'C:\Users\Martin\Downloads\result.csv'
    FROM provider, location, provider_has_location
    WHERE 
    provider.idprovider = provider_has_location.provider_idprovider AND
    location.idLocation = provider_has_location.location_idLocation
    LIMIT 20
    

    MySQL return the following error:

    Can't create/write to file 'C:UsersMartinDownloads esult.csv' (Errcode: 22)

    Thanks for your help.
