Runner exits and fails before artifacts gets downloaded

Summary

CI Pipeline executes build stage perfectly and once it starts test job it fails immediately. Re-runing the test stage does not fix the problem, but deleting the job folder(NOT JUST CONTENTS) and then re-run works. It is ocurring on Windows runner configured to "Shell" executor.

Steps to reproduce

Run attached YAML on Windows runner _gitlab-ci.yml.txt

Actual behavior

Test stage fails

Expected behavior

Log containing "Downloading artifacts for build (X)..." message and not just exit

Relevant logs and/or screenshots

Failing log:

Using Shell executor...
Running on X...

Skipping Git repository setup

ERROR: Build failed: exit status 1

After deleting projects workspace on runner stage works:

Is it Cmd or PowerShell shell? If the first then this is the same problem as for #2024 (closed) and will be resolved by !435 (merged).

It is a CMD. Thank you!
