1. Describe the bug or issue that you're seeing.

Change I8d90b4becee1dcc29c5467439b5cf51eed4a20c2 caused a breakage on Windows hosts per this line.

On Windows, the generated file that's tested here is broken, because the file paths generate as 0\.dm, since \ is the Window path separator.

Per Oracle documentation, here, \ is reserved for newline, and in order to parse a real \, you need to escape it by doubling it.

The backslash character must be escaped as a double backslash. For example:

path=c:\docs\doc1

2. Attach log files from Android Studio
   2A. In the IDE, select the Help..Collect Logs and Diagnostic Data menu option.
   2B. Create a diagnostic report and save it to your local computer.
   2C. Attach the report to this bug using the Add attachments button.

The above seems pretty clear cut, so this doesn't seem necessary.

3. If you know what they are, write the steps to reproduce:

   3A. Use AGP 8.3.0-alpha02 to build an app on a Windows host
   3B. Add a signing keystore for the release variant (can just be the debug keystore) to unlock the installRelease task
   3C. ./gradlew :app:installRelease
   3D. Execution failed for task ':app:installRelease'. > java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.nio.file.NoSuchFileException: ...\app\build\intermediates\dex_metadata_directory\release\0.dm

In addition to logs, please attach a screenshot or recording that illustrates the problem.
