Clippy does not output anything on Windows 10

[CodeGradox]

When I run the command cargo clippy it does not output anything when run it in Powershell and CMD. However, when I run it in cmd.exe it shows a few Windows popup errors. There is no error output in the console window. Powershell runs without any error popups.

Running cargo run works fine and racer also works in Visual Studio Code. Running cargo clippy in Ubuntu for Windows (bash) works perfectly fine.

I don't know if it's an error on my side, but I can try to reinstall rustup and rust and see if that fixes it. I had the GNU toolchain installed. I'll try the msvc toolchains instead.

I did a fresh install of rustup with the msvc toolchain and reinstalled clippy and it still gives no output. cmd.exe still causes those error message dialogue boxes to appear.

I forgot to mention that adding clippy as an optional dependency and running cargo build --features "clippy" does work as intended.

I have the same issue on my Win10 x64 box, didn't try to use clippy as a rustc plugin. rustc info:

IIRC you have to set up PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or whatever the equivalent is) for this to work, this used to work with rustup but doesn't anymore

I think this is a duplicate of #1422 .
