Hi @Kartikye_Mittal! Welcome to the Doppler Community! Could you elaborate a little on what your Windows environment is like? Are you just using the CLI in PowerShell? Or are you using WSL2? If you’re running in a PowerShell session, try using something like this: ```auto doppler run --command='echo %SECRET%' ``` And see if that works for you. If you’re using WSL2, I’d expect the commands you ran to work since you’re essentially running in a linux environment. I don’t have a test environment setup right now with WSL2 installed, so I’d have to get one setup for that if this is what you’re doing though! Regards, -Joel
