Initially, I have installed ActivePerl without even searching what is needed to be used for Windows. Then I come to know that Strawberry is much needed for Windows. Then went ahead installed it. Now, I have the batch files to switch back and forth to Active and Strawberry. I have switched back to Active to install IPC::Run. The following error is being thrown in the console, but also displays the IPC::Run is installed successfully.
C:\Perl64>cpanp -i IPC::Run
