Claude Code errors / Other
/usr/bin/bash: line 1: /c/Users/<name>: Permission denied
Cause
Claude Code builds a shell state-tracking command with an unquoted path; when the Windows username contains a space, Bash word-splits the path and tries to execute the first token.
Fix
Rename the Windows user to remove the space, or create a new account without a space and run Claude Code from it. Commands still execute correctly despite the error, so it is cosmetic until an upstream fix ships.
