cc @oxade @mystenmarkl, looks like perpetual table is writing to a wrong path? Windows doesn't like /, rocksdb issues?

[teohaik]

hello, ping! Any news about this?

[ahmetson]

Still not solved.

Sui version: sui 0.26.1-83de679c8 Windows 11

[stefan-mysten]

Just tried now with v1.29 and sui start worked ok on Windows. Will close this issue now, but feel free to reopen if you're still encountering issues.
