>lilypond who-has-promised_test.ly I found the error: >echo %errorlevel% 255 >net helpmsg 255 The extended attributes are inconsistent. ------ Googling this super unhelpful error message leads me here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-other_settings/windows-10-the-extended-attributes-are/bf8dd5dd-c179-4c1f-84f2-9d526a0d4878 Do what it says, and *restart* Hope that works for you and others!
