Sorry, the solution 2 does not take effect if you are using
older win10 (such as 1809).
Moreover, even with solution 2, the output of maven is garbled
if it is started from cygwin shell in the command prompt.

If you can build jansi from source, I recommend solution 1.

This is a good alternative. Thanks Jason.
