# 1.9.2: npm-global installs spawn too (Windows)
{: .no_toc }

**As of 2026-07-25.** **Nothing to configure.** No effect outside Windows.

## What was broken

1.9.1 fixed the official installer's shape (`claude.exe`). This covers **the other one**: `npm i -g` leaves only `claude` (a shell shim), `claude.cmd` and `claude.ps1` — **no `.exe` at all**.

`CreateProcessW`, which node-pty ultimately calls, runs **PE images only**, so neither the `.cmd` nor the extensionless shim could start. A batch target now runs under `cmd.exe /d /s /c`, decided in one place, so `claude`, `codex`, `tmux` and the launcher are all covered at once. Setting `CLAUDE_BIN` to an explicit `.cmd` path is wrapped as well.

## How to check

Start a session on Windows. You may also need 1.11.1 (the `--settings` quoting fix).
