Thanks for reporting! We'll be looking into this critical issue.

If you need to work around the issue for now the recommended Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 version is 16.2.4 thru version 16.9.x.

Awesome thank you.
Given we're on Community Microsoft have made it a bit difficult.
For anyone else having this issue, its down to a VS Version issue

To fix the error
Uninstall your VS 2019 + VS Installer
Download either of the pro versions of 16.9 from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63304331/how-do-i-install-a-previous-version-of-visual-studio-2019-community
Install Community 16.9 from here
Generate your project in LY
It should work!

I also face same issue.
I'm using VS 2019 version 16.10.3,
and I found the workaround.

on the file \dev\Code\Framework\AzFramework\AzFramework\IO\LocalFileIO.cpp line 502
change from

m_aliases.push_back(AZStd::pair<const char*, const char*>(key, fullPath));

into

m_aliases.push_back(AZStd::pair<OSString, OSString>(key, fullPath));

The error will be gone and you should be able to compile AzFramework project.

I can confirm this workaround works, it worked for me! I spent countless hours trying to figure out the legitimate cause for this error, thank you so much!
