Still not understand.
Are you need to replace "Desert" to ffff-bbbb-cccc?
Show me the resulting string.

Is this that you want

filename = @"C:\Users\Public\Pictures\Sample Pictures\Desert.jpg"
strarr = filterstring filename "\\."
--> result is
--> #("C:", "Users", "Public", "Pictures", "Sample Pictures", "Desert", "jpg")
