Using QGIS 3 you need to load the layers like this:
uri = r"F:AhmadTestTest4TestGrid_Test.shp"
iface.addVectorLayer(uri, "Grid", "ogr")
You need to put r
before the path. r
stands for "raw" which interprets backslash in the string as actual backslash rather than a special character.
You can refer to the tutorial of PyQGIS 101: Loading a vector layer
