It sounds like a permissions issue on your computer's filesystem. I was able to reproduce the problem as you described it by navigating (in explorer) to my Sage installation directory, in my case "C:\Users\Erik M. Bray\AppData\Local\SageMath 8.7", and manually changing the permissions on "runtime\bin\bash.exe" so that I could not read or execute the file. That produced the same results. It's possible that whatever directory you installed Sage to has its permissions inherited, possibly from a parent directory, that is screwing up permissions on the executables in your Sage installation. I would suggest uninstalling, checking that the ACLs (access control lists) on the path you're installing to look sane (see e.g. https://www.pcworld.com/article/3151045/how-to-reclaim-file-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows.html) and reinstalling. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
