It's not sudo for Windows, it's a pile of rust which, if you figure out how to assemble it, presumably turns into some Microsoft interpretation of sudo which, judging by all the open issues, might be an attempt at grep that went wrong somewhere. If you want a proper sudo for Windows, use gerardog's excellent gsudo, https://github.com/gerardog/gsudo https://github.com/gerardog/gsudo. Among other things it comes with prebuilt binaries and installers.
