[Question] Windows support id command not found

[dangerousplay]

Executing this formula on Windows 10 Vagrant Box peru/windows-10-enterprise-x64-eval causes the execution to fail due to not found the id -un command. Does Windows have id command distribution? I'm using this formula to configure a workstation, Kubernetes formula also uses this command to look up the root user.

Error log:

@dangerousplay Thanks for the report. We've encountered this before in another formula. Can you try this workaround and let me know if it works out for you?

Sorry for the late response. This seems to work out however, the installation step is hanging on using archive mode as upstream.
