Windows: Error: unable to open output file when enabling the new architecture

Description

I’ve installed the new version 0.68 then enable the new architecture and try to run npx react-native run-android and it doesn’t build. I believe that it is because the path has front and backlashes.

`BUILD FAILED in 3m 21s

hey folks - just to give you a quick update, I’ve reported this internally at Microsoft and a couple of engineers have been looking into it. We think we have found the commit that “broke” this and we are looking into ways of fixing this, by end of the week we should have some options on the table - the aim is for this to be fixed in 0.68.1

The same happens for me too. The same app builds on a Mac (for android ofc) without problems, but on Windows the buildNdkBuildDebug task fails with these No such file or directory errors.
