I have a problem reading a big .csv file that contains some data in the form of "text 7\" text". For smaller files I just removed \" altogether, but the last one is over 500MB and I can't open it with Notepad ++ to replace the strings. An example row of actual data I can't read:

Unbranded/Generic,"15\", A1398",Does not apply,None,None,None,UK

Adding neither fill = TRUE nor quote = '' as arguments helps. Any tips?
