A user accidentally created the subdirectory \dir in his home directory. Which of the following commands will remove that directory?

Answer options

• B. rmdir "~/\dir"
• C. rmdir ~/'dir'
• D. rmdir ~/\dir
• E. rmdir ~/\\dir

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is D because it accurately specifies the directory path with the correct escape for the backslash. Option A and B have incorrect use of quotes and escaping, while option C refers to 'dir' instead of '\dir', and option E incorrectly uses double backslashes.
