Hi there. I have a weird problem. I was developing my blog with Ubuntu. And everything was working fine. Recently I wanted to write content from my windows machine as well. But no luck my posts are not being rendered by hugo. Here is my blog source code:

>
> Repository for the personal website. Contribute to osmancakir/osmancakirioblog development by creating an account on GitHub.

when I run hugo server this is my output on windows:

```auto

drafts is not a problem. all my posts have draft:false attribute.

Have no idea what is causing this. If you need more info please let me know.

Be careful using `.File.Dir`, because it depends on OS environment. (UNIX vs Windows)

in UNIX `File.Dir` will produce `/notebooks/`,  
in Windows `File.Dir` will produce `\notebooks\`

using simple` replace` will do the job,

what’s your command on Windows?  
use the options `--watch --noHTTPCache`
