Bazel

Use Bazel’s own startup options for scalable Windows deployment: put startup --output_user_root=C:/tmp in a shared .bazelrc to shorten paths and avoid Windows command-line/path-length issues, and add startup --windows_enable_symlinks plus build --enable_runfiles only on machines with Developer Mode or elevated rights because those features require symlink creation on Windows. For enterprise toolchain consistency, set BAZEL_VC, BAZEL_VC_FULL_VERSION, BAZEL_WINSDK_FULL_VERSION, or BAZEL_LLVM in the environment so Bazel resolves the intended Visual C++/SDK/LLVM installations without editing user projects.
