MSYS2 Installation
Google says (1, 2, 3) that this issue is caused by Avast/AVG antivirus moving some executable files (bash.exe in your case, seemingly) into its quarantine folder.

Erdtree v1.4.1 - the love child of `tree` and `du`, now with support for a configuration file to override defaults and more
Could you let me know of this is perhaps relevant to you? I will investigate sometime this week! Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Windows Subsystem For Linux a.k.a. WSL 1.0.0 released
I am still on WSL1 due to the filesystem performance with WSL2. I recently tried to move more of my workflow towards MSYS2 but various things keep breaking for me without obvious reasons.
Latest issue I encountered was that GNU parallel simple does not work. [1]

Getting GTK3 in WINE?
I've already tested the rest of the tools needed for the build process (just Python 3.10 and PyInstaller) and they seem to work fine. My issue is that both MSYS2 and Cygwin do not work in WINE (this is pretty well documented: MSYS2, Cygwin), so I don't know of any other means of getting the Windows versions of GTK3 libraries in my WINE prefix so that PyInstaller can pack it all up for me.

copy_file with overwirte_existing throws exception when the file exists
It's old bug with gcc standard library implementation which has not been fixed, I guess most likely nobody made a bug report. I tested it myself and indeed it doesn't work properly and we are not alone: https://github.com/msys2/MSYS2-packages/issues/1937.

The Atrocities of COM win32 headers
My last experience with MinGW-w64 was when I was trying to compile my C++ simulation code in Windows and finding out that AVX instructions were not working because the compiler had misalignment-related bugs. (The issue is still open in https://github.com/msys2/MSYS2-packages/issues/1209)
MinGW/MSYS certainly had appeal to former Linux devs who didn't want to touch the horrors of MSVC, but Zig (with its included Clang compiler/runtime) might end up being a better solution for people trying to compile C/C++ code on Windows in a stable manner.

How to enable pretty printers?
According to this: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-cpptools/issues/3423 it seems to be at least somewhat possible to reuse natvis files from Visual Studio, but I have not tested that. Never really had the need to look at any non-vector container in the debugger.
