Problems when using the plugin in Windows

[splincode]

When I run my builder in TeamCity CI, I get an argument, which directory should be deleted.

• Windows
  C:\Users\splincode\Git\blackbox/core-adapter-web/target/classes/webapp

• Linux
  /home/splincode/Git/blackbox/core-adapter-web/target/classes/webapp

So, the path arrives absolute and I can not know exactly where the script can run from. If I use current configuration, it's work in Linux:

var CleanWebpackPlugin = require('clean-webpack-plugin');
var dist = process.env["remove-temporary-folder"];

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    new CleanWebpackPlugin([dist], {
      root: '/',
      verbose: true
    })
  ]
}

But, does not work in Windows, because I need set root as value "C:/". What should I do to make it cross-platform and work?

@splincode You can use path.resolve('/') to get root folder (be aware that if you are running node on drive D: it will return 'D:\\' instead of 'C:\\').
If this temp folder is inside your working directory - you can just use paths relative to config file (which is usually in the root of the project) and may omit root property in options (defaults to __dirname)

Did @splincode did @IllusionMH's answer solve your issue?
