generator-jhipster: Webpack fails to build when having the ! String in the path

Overview of the issue

Error when creating a new project. The error occurs if I run yo jhipster from directory d:\!Test (with !) then the application does not work. Successful launch if I run yo jhipster from directory d:\Test (without symbol !) then the application is successfully functioning.

Errors:
