C++ Compile Active File - doesn't work (Win 7)

VSCode Version: 1.44.2
C/C++ Version 0.27.1
OS Version: Windows_NT x64 6.1.7601

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install Extensions: C/C++; CMake; CMake Tools
2. Select compiler: e.g. Visual Studio Professional 2019 - x86
3. Open and build any suitable CMake project. (This works no problems for me).
4. Open any C++ file in that project, and select "Compile Active File (Ctrl+F7)
5. Terminal window opens with a command prompt but nothing else happens. Active file is not compiled.

I think the issue is limited to Win7. My colleague has Win10 and Compile_Active_File works fine for him.

I think the problem is that Compile_Active_File is trying to paste a long compile command into the terminal but this is not working. (I found a VSCode issue reported that just pasting long text into terminal does not work)

If I try pasting the command line in manually (1562 chars long) nothing happens. If I paste the command in 2 pieces, it works as expected.

I wondered if a possible fix/workaround would be to send the command to the terminal in smaller chunks.

Note: I initially reported this issue in VSCode repository ([https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/96860]), but they suggested it was a C++ issue.

Reproduce the issue on Windows 7 using the listed CMake Tools setup and the Compile Active File command. Start by tracing how that command sends the long compile line to the terminal; done means the active C++ file compiles successfully, including when the command is longer than the terminal accepts in one paste.
