Using sbt-typescript to generate assets on a windows system throws an exception:

This appears to be a JVM change in security policy on windows systems. Other users ran into this with the underlying sbt-js-engine: https://github.com/sbt/sbt-js-engine/issues/68

There is a workaround by setting -Djdk.lang.Process.allowAmbiguousCommands=true in a .jvmopts file.

I consider this a hack, looking for a proper fix.
