Nope, just rebooted into Win 10 Pro to have a look as I've got SB perl
installed there and I don't have that file either.  May be temporary during
installation,suggest you check under Control Panel\All Control Panel
Items\Programs and Features and see if it thinks it's partially installed?
If so, remove and start again...

Cheers David H.
