When I run the demo command in a Windows command prompt, it fails with an error:

Not a benchmark task.

In a clean container the reported failure did not reproduce, or the known fix did not make the project run.

03 / ORIGINAL ISSUE TEXT

SBoudrias/Inquirer.js #2230 · read the original issue

When I run the demo command in a Windows command prompt, it fails with an error:

```bash
C:\>npx @inquirer/demo@latest
'inquirer-demo' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
```

Is this a compatibility bug in the script, or something weird on my system? Other npx commands that I've run recently from other libs appear to work fine, so I would lean towards the former.

node v25.9.0
npm 11.0.0
