`golangci-lint-action@v3` ends with `Error: The operation was canceled` for `windows`

[zak-pawel]

Welcome

• Yes, I understand that the GitHub action repository is not the repository of golangci-lint itself.
• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, I've included all information below (version, config, etc).

Description of the problem

I'm trying to enable golangci/golangci-lint-action@v3 action for windows and darwin for https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf repository.

Right now it is run only for linux and it works great. After turning on windows and darwin I got Error: The operation was canceled. without any other explanation (mainly for windows but sometimes also for darwin).

In workflow section you may see two approaches (with 3 OSes and with ubuntu-stable only but with three different values of GOOS). Both of them fails on CI:

hello,

"The operation was canceled." is not related to the golangci-lint GitHub action: it's because another job has failed then GitHub has canceled the other jobs.
