This took me out for a day as the errors in the console are all blank and there were similar symptoms when 4.x was added to unity so the forums are full of noise about that. Anyone with less technical know-how would probably end up reinstalling Windows as I almost did.

It also breaks git in Visual Studio since it tries to operate just `git` command (w/o `.exe`).

The below topic had the solution to my problem, just adding a .exe to the end of the \csc did the trick
