    Just got hit by this as well. Running the currently latest version 0.0.11 on Windows 11. I have long paths on Windows enabled in the registry via [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem] "LongPathsEnabled"=dword:00000001

    Just happened to me as well in the latest version 0.0.11 using Windows 11, and I have applied long paths in windows registry
    The issue didn't happen to me once when using codex cli
