liljohn has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am running Windows 10 and am using Perl 5.8. I can not open a file from a Perl script no matter how I try. My most recent code is as follows:

my $filename = "C/Perl64/Perl Scripts/Names.txt"; open(my $fh,'<:encoding(UTF-8)', $filename) || die "Could not open fil +e";
