### Please describe the problem.
After a clean install of the latest git-annex for Windows (https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/windows/current/), most git-annex commands fail with the following error message:
git-annex: System.PosixCompat.User.getEffectiveUserID: not supported: illegal operation
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
git init
git annex init
Running for example `git annex version` or `git annex info` gives the same error message.
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
git-annex version should be 5.20141024, but the installer does not specify version and `git annex info` does not work, so it is hard to tell for sure.
Running Windows 7, x64. Also tried running as administrator and in a cmd.exe shell as well as Powershell.
### Please provide any additional information below.
The `git annex test` command does work, and all 84 tests passes.
