The tips around fixing spaces in path in the build guide is not comprehensive:
1. Short name setting can fail if there's process holding on to the directory to set a short name. (Windows message says "access denied" which is not helpful at all) Sometimes the short name has to be set when Windows is reboot in safe mode.
2. The directories that must have short names set include "Microsoft Visual Studio" and "Windows Kits". Missing "Windows Kits" will lead to confusing failures; we should recommend users to always set short path on these 2 if short paths are absent.
