Description

For some reason rocksdb tries to find/create files in Windows with wrong file path. Is this a configuration problem or a bug?

System: Windows 11
Lib: Rust-rocksdb 0.19

`2023-01-19T18:35:50.640459Z ERROR node{name=0x79d8571}: typed_store::rocks: error=rocksdb error: IO error: No such file or directory: Failed to create a NewWriteableFile: C:\Users\teoha\foo\bar\test_db\88c26\test/MANIFEST-000001: The system cannot find the path specified.`

Research direction

No project file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the reported Rust-rocksdb 0.19 failure on Windows 11 using the logged path, then trace how RocksDB receives and creates that path. Done means determining whether the mixed separators or missing directories cause the error and documenting a verified fix or configuration explanation.
