What's Wrong?

With the installation of claude via powershell, the install doesnt work and produces a error message:
Claude Code on Windows requires git-bash
I've installed git with different versions, different settings, nothing changed. Also I added and removed environemnt variables serveral times and tried many combinations. The error still exists.

What Should Happen?

After install of git, the error shouldn't persist.
