Steps to reproduce

Bug Description

When attempting to start the Dify web application on Windows using pnpm start, the command fails with the error "'cp' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." This is because the cp command used in the start script is a Unix/Linux command that doesn't exist natively on Windows.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Clone the Dify repository on a Windows machine
  2. Navigate to the web directory
  3. Run pnpm install to install dependencies
  4. Run pnpm build to build the application
  5. Run pnpm start to start the application
  6. Observe the error

✔️ Expected Behavior

The application should start successfully on Windows, just like it does on Unix-like systems.

❌ Actual Behavior

The command fails with the error:

'cp' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
