Problem / Steps to reproduce

Hello,

I've just downloaded and installed the latest binary as per the Using git subsection of the README:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.git ~/.fzf
~/.fzf/install

Sanity-checking of the --help and --version options went fine:

However, "firing it up" with no command-line arguments gave the following message:

C:\cygwin64\tmp\fzf-temp-**3211332915**: line 4: C:\cygwin64\home\mawoo\.vim\bundle\fzf\target\fzf-windows_amd64.msys2_built: command not found

FWIW, the numeric codes in that temp file name change with every rerun.

I am affected by the same issue. For some reason, fzf won't work in a plain zsh shell in mintty, but when I run fzf in a zsh shell in a tmux window, it works just fine.
