claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [BUG]Claude Code on Windows should look for bash at C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe (or check both paths). [1 participants]

Error Messages/Logs

TL;DR

The issue can be resolved by modifying Claude Code to look for bash at the correct path on Windows, specifically C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe.

Guidance

• Verify the current bash path configuration in Claude Code to understand why it's not checking the correct location on Windows.
• Consider adding a check for both possible bash paths on Windows to ensure compatibility.
• Review the code changes made between the last working version and the current version (2.1.90) to identify the regression cause.
• Test the fix on both Windows and macOS to ensure cross-platform compatibility.

Notes

The issue report lacks specific details about the code changes or the exact error messages, making it challenging to provide a precise fix. Additionally, the report mentions using macOS as the operating system, which seems inconsistent with the problem description focused on Windows.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Modify the Claude Code configuration to check for bash at C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe on Windows, as this is the most direct approach to resolving the reported issue.
