Problem / Steps to reproduce

After updating to the fzf@0.47.0 the process is not working

I use scoop to manage tools: fzf 0.47.0 main 2024-03-12 11:59:39

fzf --version
Could not create process with command '"C:\Users\XXXX\scoop\apps\fzf\current\fzf.exe" --version'.

when downgrading to 0.46.1, fzf works again.

Which version of Windows are you running?
Can you download and test the official binary in https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/releases/tag/0.47.0?

Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise, Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045 And you can close this ticket as I'm pretty sure what is happening.

A few weeks ago, our IT department contacted me about fzf's suspicious behavior (clearing the history file). They then whitelisted the application. With the new version (0.47.0), the fzf.exe file is physically deleted when I try to run it for the first time, which leads to the error I posted. I have to contact IT again 😅.

Sorry for the false alarm.

I see, thanks for the confirmation.
