Nice to know:

  1. The Tailscale auth command does not respond anything.

  2. " 'tailscale' not recognised." After the installation is there a way to restart the console to accept new environment variables?

I can bypass it running a batch/exe with my auth command in it, but still freezes at this point.

When I remotely enter the windows runner and run it in a new console it just works fine. But in the Step-by-Step CI it freezes (infinite loop) at this point.
