Description

#### Version information:
I was trying to install go-ipfs on windows 10 | amd64 by following this [wiki](https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/blob/master/docs/windows.md)
I have installed all necessary tools:
* go version go1.16.2 windows/amd64
* (cygwin) 3.1.7

#### Description:

When I start `make install` I get this error:

```C:\Users\XXX\go\src\github.com\ipfs\go-ipfs>make install
go version go1.16.2 windows/amd64
bin/check_go_version 1.14.4
plugin/loader/preload.sh > plugin/loader/preload.go
make: *** [plugin/loader/Rules.mk:8: plugin/loader/preload.go] Error 127**
```

Any tips to fix it?
