'Global ESLint/.eslintrc Path' does not seem to be applied on Windows

Issue Description

I installed ESLint globally and enabled the 'Global ESLint/Use global ESLint installation' checkbox. There is no local ESLint installed. Configuration looks like this:

When '.eslintrc Path' is /.eslintrc.js as shown in the image, the config file is able to load correctly. C:/.eslintrc.js and C:\.eslintrc.js works as well.

However it seems to have trouble when the file is inside a subdirectory. If I put the config file in C:/Config/ and set the path as /Config/.eslintrc.js, the config file is no longer loaded. Neither do C:/Config/.eslintrc.js nor C:\Config\.eslintrc.js work.

Strangely, if you leave .eslintrc.js under C:\.eslintrc.js, and set the path as anything else (e.g. /Config/.eslintrc.js, C:\.eslintrc.js is still loaded. This is leading me to suspect that the option 'Global ESLint/.eslintrc Path' is not applied at all, and hard-coded /.eslintrc.js is being applied regardless.
