Try to print() this variable value and You'll see Your problem.
Rule to work with strings:
Do NOT use double-quotes unless You absolutely sure You need them.
So, either
$file = 'C:\xampp\htdocs\app\webroot\pics\file.jpg';
or (as rick said) this way
$file = "C:/xampp/htdocs/app/webroot/pics/file.jpg";

But much safer and portable way is to use forward-slashes even with
single-quoted string.

$file = 'C:/xampp/htdocs/app/webroot/pics/file.jpg';
