Tooling Impact

Required tooling change
Optional tooling change (include reasoning)

This is a required tooling change that fixes the PMC release build pipeline for Linux containers. Without this fix, the CredScan step fails because the path with backslashes is not properly resolved in Linux environments.

Customer Impact

Regression

REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.

This is not a regression.

Testing

This backport applies the same fix already successfully tested and merged to v7.5.6 (PR #27318). The change fixes Linux container builds by using forward slashes instead of backslashes in file paths within the release-prep-for-ev2.yml pipeline template.

Risk

REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.

High
Medium
Low

Medium risk as this modifies the build pipeline, but the change is minimal (single line), well-tested through the v7.5.6 backport, and directly addresses a specific build failure in Linux containers without affecting other functionality.
