Summary
This issue was first discussed in: [CEA 46220][Windows 10] roottest: execHistArray redefinition error
I installed your root_v6.36.04.win64.python311.vc17.zip package on Windows 10
and roottest: execHistArray failed with redefinition of '_CrtEnableIf<true, _Ty>'
error.
Hypothesis
Could it be related to Visual Studio 2022 version (MSVC)?
