At the risk of being pedantic, it's /manage, not \manage.

The ZMI is a URL on your site, it's not a file on the filesystem.  Maybe
you just mis-typed, but just in case... wanted to make sure you're
trying to open that in a *browser*, not Windoze Explorer.

This seems unlikely.  Anyone who would know enough to change the
management address would hopefully know better than to do it.

If /manage truly doesn't work when appended to your site URL, you should
also try /manage_main and /manage_workspace.  If *those* don't work, I'd
put my money on the possibility that Zope is running *behind* another
server (such as IIS) and that requests to /manage* are being blocked on
port 80 for security reasons.

If that's the case, try this url in a browser on the same PC as Zope:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/manage
