SQLite importing csv file
I am using SQLite and I can't import this csv file for some reason. I ran cmd first then entered SQLite.
my input in cmd:
cd C:UsersFriesDesktopSQLite
sqlite3
.mode csv
.import C:UsersFriesDesktopcity.csv cities
.schema cities
I am using this tutorial. http://www.sqlitetutorial.net/sqlite-import-csv/
for some reason I can't open the csv
I am new to dbms and sqlite seems to be a super simple one

Going by the feedback in the error message, it looks like the backslashes need to be escaped. I would first try this:
sqlite> .import C:/Users/Fries/Desktop/city.csv
The following might also work, using escaped backslashes:
sqlite> .import C:\Users\Fries\Desktop\city.csv
