Why would the list run only on Linux?

I don't know, I find this really hard to understand to what you said in the beginning:

For some reasons I have to use hashcat on both The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali) and windows 10. The issue is that the wordlist runs fine on The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali), but on windows all the candidates are hex values and unreadable charts.

I don't find any connection. You maybe want to explain everything again from the beginning.
