"ionic serve" command does not work in Windows environment

Windows cmd.exe で ionic serve --verbose を実行して失敗を再現し、動作する直接のコマンド ng run app:serve --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8100 と比較します。ionic serve のプロセス呼び出しと Windows での処理を追跡します; sh を必要とせずに ionic serve が正常に起動すれば完了です。

Description:
I am having an error running the simple command of ionic serve natively in Windows. However, ionic cordova build android works fine in the same shell. This is the error that running ionic serve in cmd.exe gives:

ionic serve
> ng run app:serve --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8100
[ng] 'sh' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
[ng] operable program or batch file.

However, running ng run app:serve --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8100 directly works just fine...

The ionic serve command also works properly in Linux through WSL, however, the problem with that approach is that node-sass has to be recompiled with Linux bindings to do this.

Steps to Reproduce:

• Start a new project with ionic start via cmd.exe in Windows (with all pre-requisites already successfully installed and configured)
• Try to serve up the App with ionic serve
• Note the error

Output:
Below is the more detailed error log running ionic serve --verbose. As can be seen in the log, windows: true is set. However, for some reason, ionic-cli is still trying to execute sh commands in a windows environment?
