Hi, is this Windows Server 2012 R2? That version is 9 years old:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Server

I assume it does not have curl installed. You could either try to update your Windows version or manually instal curl:
https://curl.se/windows/

Yes it is, and it is still supported by Microsoft. Your point being ?

you rely on 3rd party dependencies that your users have to install manually to run your project. (git, curl, ....) so AFAIK Windows Server 2012 R2 is still a valid platform as per your application list; Microsoft Windows running on an AMD x86_64 or Intel EM64T CPU

LODA requires a web client (curl or wget). Windows 10/11 have curl pre-installed as part of the OS:
https://curl.se/windows/microsoft.html
It appears like MS didn't port it to Windows Server.
That means, you would need to install it manually on this machine.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

extract and copy in c:/windows/system32...
