sf gives error '"-S"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. #3150
Description
Summary
As of cli 2.69.14 on Windows, running a command like sf data:query... gives error '"-S"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Steps To Reproduce
With cli 2.67.7 installed in VS Code, a command like sf data:query... works as expected.
I upgraded @salesforce/cli to 2.69.14, and after that, the sf data:query... command gives error '"-S"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Expected result
Command should run without error.
Actual result
Command produces an error.
Additional information
It looks to me like the change is due to this change in <path>\npm\sf.cmd.
In 2.67.7, it looks like this:
@ECHO off
GOTO start
:find_dp0
SET dp0=%~dp0
EXIT /b
:start
SETLOCAL
CALL :find_dp0
IF EXIST "%dp0%\node.exe" (
SET "_prog=%dp0%\node.exe"
) ELSE (
SET "_prog=node"
SET PATHEXT=%PATHEXT:;.JS;=;%
)
endLocal & goto #_undefined_# 2>NUL || title %COMSPEC% & "%_prog%" "%dp0%\node_modules\@salesforce\cli\bin\run.js" %*
In 2.69.14, it looks like this (note the introduction of -S.exe. This is due to the change in https://github.com/salesforcecli/cli/blob/main/bin/run.cmd to introduce the --no-deprecation flag
@ECHO off
GOTO start
:find_dp0
SET dp0=%~dp0
EXIT /b
:start
SETLOCAL
CALL :find_dp0
IF EXIST "%dp0%\-S.exe" (
SET "_prog=%dp0%\-S.exe"
) ELSE (
SET "_prog=-S"
SET PATHEXT=%PATHEXT:;.JS;=;%
)
endLocal & goto #_undefined_# 2>NUL || title %COMSPEC% & "%_prog%" node --no-deprecation "%dp0%\node_modules\@salesforce\cli\bin\run.js" %*

Linux needs
#!/usr/bin/env -Sbut this breaks Windows shims
