deadpickle's path appears well formed, meaning he knows how to escape slashes, so forward slashes aren't needed.
Usually you want to know why unlink failed (and on what line)

my $filename = qw[ C:\Users\deadpickle\Desktop\UAS\GRRUVI_1.60\panel\U
+AS01 ];
unlink $filename or die "Couldn't unlink($filename) : ($!)($^E)";
__END__
Couldn't unlink(C:\Users\deadpickle\Desktop\UAS\GRRUVI_1.60\panel\UAS0
+1) : (No such file or directory)(The system cannot find the path spec
+ified) at - line 2.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
