Description

I'm using Atom editor (atom-beautify). I ran into this error both on Win7 and Win10.

It seems any invalid syntax is the trigger.

Research direction

Reproduce the report on Windows using elm-format.exe through Atom's atom-beautify integration, with intentionally invalid Elm syntax, and capture the console error shown in the issue. Trace whether the failure comes from elm-format or the integration, then verify that invalid syntax produces a usable error without the getConsoleScreenBufferInfo invalid-argument message.
