This works fine, since Windows interprets both "\" and "/" in
places (including the functions nginx uses).

When using "\" in nginx configuration, you have to be careful to
properly escape it, since "\" is also an escape character, and,
for example, "\n" will be interpreted as a newline character. As
such, using "/" is usually easier.
On the other hand, this particular issue does not explain why you
are seeing the "invalid number of arguments" error, it should be
"cannot load certificate" with a garbled certificate path instead.
The "invalid number of arguments" error suggests you've typed
multiple arguments in the directive (instead of just one it
accepts). This usually happens if a space character is
accidentally used where it shouldn't, but in the directives as
shown certainly there are no extra space characters.
Most likely, there is an issue with the text editor you use, and
it's somehow inserts some additional non-printable characters,
such as byte order mark or something like that, and this confuses
nginx.
What editor do you use? Is using another one and re-typing the
directives) makes a difference? E.g., Notepad is usually
available on Windows and does not seem to corrupt text files.
