@statico cmder is definitely a great thing for windows, however it's fault buggy due to way it operates.

Overall the best long term option is to simply stop developing on windows and start using Linux, docker, mono, nodejs etc.

I did this 10 years ago, and the situation on windows still hasn't improved.

What do you mean "due to way it operates?" Can you explain?

Also, how does node have anything to do with this discussion?
