What issue are you seeing?

I am seeing what looks like the same Windows bundled runtime relocation failure on Codex Desktop.

Environment:

• OS: Windows
• Codex Desktop: 26.608.1337.0
• Install path: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\OpenAI.Codex_26.608.1337.0_x64__2p2nqsd0c76g0
• Plugin: computer-use@openai-bundled enabled
• Computer Use plugin files exist, including:
• scripts/computer-use-client.mjs
• node_modules/@oai/sky/bin/windows/codex-computer-use.exe

Symptom:

• Computer Use is listed/enabled, but no Node REPL JavaScript tool is exposed in the session.
• mcp__node_repl__js, js, and js_reset are not available.
• As a result, Computer Use cannot bootstrap through the official computer-use-client.mjs path.

Relevant log lines:

warning bundled_executable_relocation_failed
destinationPath=C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\OpenAI\Codex\runtimes\cua_node\.staging-...
errorCode=EIO
errorMessage="Bundled executable relocation failed during copy_directory"
executableName=node.exe
failedExecutableName=node.exe
sourceKind=windowsapps
sourcePath="C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\OpenAI.Codex_26.608.1337.0_x64__2p2nqsd0c76g0\app\resources\cua_node"
warning bundled_executable_relocation_failed
executableName=node_repl.exe
failedExecutableName=node_repl.exe
errorCode=EIO
operation=copy_directory
Then:
warning [computer-use-native-pipe] computer-use native pipe startup failed
errorMessage="Windows Computer Use helper paths are unavailable"
And:
info [BrowserUseThreadConfig] browser_use_setup_failed backend=node_repl phase=runtime-paths platform=win32 reason=node-repl-missing
Things checked:
Source files exist under ...\app\resources\cua_node\bin\, including node.exe and node_repl.exe.
cipher /c reports the files are not encrypted.
Manually copying the runtime from the WindowsApps source into C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\OpenAI\Codex\runtimes\cua_node succeeds.
Manually running Node's fs.cp(src, dst, { recursive: true }) against the same source and a staging destination succeeds.
Even after the local cache contains bin/node.exe, bin/node_repl.exe, bin/node_modules, and manifest.json, Codex Desktop still tries to relocate into a fresh .staging-* path on startup and fails before exposing Node REPL tools.
Question:
Is there a known workaround for this WindowsApps runtime relocation failure, or a way to force Codex Desktop to use an already-populated local cua_node runtime cache?
