Hi Zaki Thanks for the proposal. The perl you are using is installed by MSYS2, is it ?
I'm using strawberry perl. And unfortunately libwinpthread-1.dll in strawberry is not compatible with the one in msys64/mingw32. A naïve question sorry: using perl from MSYS2, can you start a perl script from the "normal" MS cmd.exe shell ?
