execution error: Io(Custom { kind: Other, error: "windows sandbox: spawn setup refresh" })

TL;DR

The issue may be related to the Windows sandbox environment, and adjusting the execution policy or running the command in a different context might resolve the error.

Guidance

• The error message "windows sandbox: spawn setup refresh" suggests a potential issue with the Windows sandbox environment, which might be interfering with the file reading operation.
• Try running the command Get-ChildItem -Name | Select-Object -First 40 in a different terminal emulator or as an administrator to see if the issue persists.
• Consider adjusting the execution policy using the Set-ExecutionPolicy cmdlet to allow scripts to run in the current scope.
• Verify that the file permissions are correctly set and that the user running the command has the necessary access rights.

Notes

The issue might be specific to the Windows sandbox environment and the Codex CLI version 0.124.0.0. Further investigation into the sandbox settings and the CLI's interaction with the Windows environment may be necessary to fully resolve the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Adjust the execution policy and run the command in a different context to see if it resolves the error, as the root cause is likely related to the Windows sandbox environment.
