No. Just "filename.txt not found" > if ($^O eq 'MSWin32') returns true, then the cmd.exe system commands > will be available. Other windows system commands do work.

SHELL *= C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe I tried it once with make clean, then I deleted the entire build and downloaded a fresh stable source. The effect is the same, I still get the same errors during test. So the option works correctly, but has no effect on my issue. There are several "file not founds" during the test, I think maybe this has something to do with it? (see my new thread where I print more of the error details...)
