    Description

      Qt 6.8 does not support build paths with white spaces anymore. (windows, msvc2022)

      I just tried (by accident) building a project with whitespaces in the build path.
      This does fail with the Qt 6.8 beta.

      It worked with Qt 6.7.x.
      Experienced developers will spot the reason, but unexperienced developers are likely to get blocked by this, if they are e.g. trying to build projects in their document folder.
