The provided information strikes me as being assembled without any attention to detail ("Windows 11"? What was that output of ver? Ah, it was probably not even run.), and combined with the fact that it would require a substantial amount of time in addition to the missing information to even try to debug this, I am highly tempted to reciprocate the very same amount of attention to detail in return.

This old thread on the cygwin mailing list gives us the hint that the 8 might be the ascii code of a character (backspace) that ls is trying to output. Now the question is why would ls output a backspace and why is the msys2 runtime unhappy about that?
