I found the same thing on Windows 10. It doesn't seem to be an issue with the batch file itself as that appears unchanged in the new version--rather, it seems to be a problem with the command line utility itself. I'm guessing the flaw is in tableau-prep-cli.jar. I'd have to guess this is a bug and I'd suggest reporting it to Tableau Support.
