Leave out the trailing slash in 'D:/Stuff/Ruby/', it will lead to a 
double slash in the file paths. I didn't see that first.

Well, as you can see, the solution is far from perfect. What you could 
do is to at least "normalize" the paths by replacing multiple slashes 
and backslashes with a single slash:

file_path.gsub(/[\/\\]+/, '/').start_with? ignore_folder.gsub(/[\/\\]+/, 
'/')
