The above error occurs no matter whether You have admin privileges in Windows or not.

@pablo53 Thanks for the report. sbt version is determined by the content of project/build.properties file. Does your project have project/build.properties? Does it specify 1.3.9? If so could you try with 1.3.8 or 1.2.8 and see if they work?

I am closing this due to inactivity, but if this is still relevant let us know with more details.

I would like to add that this is still the case on Windows 11, using SBT 1.6.2 (specified in project/build.properties). Is there something I can do to help debug this? It seems to me sbt itself is depending in Jansi, which is not available (I suppose it should only use Jansi if it's found on the classpath, and just revert to uncolored defaults if it's not available).

My os.name and os.arch (this is a Windows on ARM device):

jshell> System.getProperty("os.name");
$2 ==> "Windows 11"
jshell> System.getProperty("os.arch");
$3 ==> "aarch64"

When running sbt:
