windows - Can't start Git Bash

Question

Having trouble starting Git Bash, not sure where in the stack my errors are occuring. Running Windows 10, Git Bash, ConEmu and Vagrant.

When I start Git Bash, either through ConEmu or the application directly, I receive the following message:

0 [main] bash 4696 fork: child 528 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11
bash: fork: retry: No child processes
1263234 [main] bash 4696 fork: child 684 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11
bash: fork: retry: No child processes
3519490 [main] bash 4696 fork: child 2020 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11
bash: fork: retry: No child processes
7764494 [main] bash 4696 fork: child 7064 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11
bash: fork: retry: No child processes

I don't know enough about Git Bash (or bash, for that matter) to figure out what's going on and all the answers I can find are about Cygwin.

Answer 1

Same issue happened with COMODO Firewall since last update.

1. Adding Git folder to File Rating > File List as trusted file

2. Adding Git folder to Advanced protection > Milanescious > Shell code exclusion

3. Setting git-bash.exe as allowed application in Firewall > Application Rules (this one may be optional, but it won't hurt anyway)

Solved the issue on Windows 10.

Side note : Turning COMODO firewall off does not solve the issue, this is quite misleading... But adding exclusions rules does fix the problem.

Other side note: if you use Comodo Firewall, you should consider uninstalling it... It has bugged and ruined my windows install, i've got a lot of BSOD as soon as i removed it... When i think of it in hindsight, he was the root cause of a lot of problem. I mean, how in the world a Firewall could silently block an application or infinite sandboxing it without even a notification. Plus the removall is a pain in the ass, uninstaller crash one time out of two...
