Thanks. This is fixed in #414, specifically 2ee2501. The fix has not been released yet, but will in the next version.

As a workaround for now, go to Watchman's release page and find a version with a Windows installer. Here is the latest with one right now. Then, re-run the Scalar install without --watchman.

Any way i can verify that it has found the installation correctly please? :)

Scalar will modify your Git config during scalar clone, scalar register, or scalar run config commands. You can run git config core.fsmonitor to see if that points to a path in your .git/hooks directory. If that config does not exist, then you will need to check your watchman installation, possibly restart your terminal, and run scalar run config in your repository.
