❔ What would be the best way to dynamicly cut in a string>

So for example I have this:
"C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\mod\HoI4-LotrMod\gfx\interface\goals\Generic\GFX_goal_generic_industry_I.tga"
But Im only intrested in the location of the file within the folder "HoI4-LotrMod" altough that folder could in theory be called anything.
What would be the best way to make sure I would always end up with the last "gfx\interface\goals\Generic\GFX_goal_generic_industry_I.tga" part

Split on "HoI4-LotrMod""HoI4-LotrMod" and take the last part?

REPL Result: Success

@"C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\mod\HoI4-LotrMod\gfx\interface\goals\Generic\GFX_goal_generic_industry_I.tga".Split("HoI4-LotrMod")[^1]

@"C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\mod\HoI4-LotrMod\gfx\interface\goals\Generic\GFX_goal_generic_industry_I.tga".Split("HoI4-LotrMod")[^1]

Result: string

\gfx\interface\goals\Generic\GFX_goal_generic_industry_I.tga

\gfx\interface\goals\Generic\GFX_goal_generic_industry_I.tga

I would probably use IndexOf and Substring but that's arguably a matter of personal preference. I kind of have a personal dislike of the Split method because it often allocates a bunch of strings you don't care about. (Of course, now we're micro-optimizing.)

Alright thanks
