This is a paraview reader problem. I have similar problems while using Paraview 5.4.0-RC2. However, the calculation can be run and the first time step is read as it should. I had no time to check the source of the problem. So don't care about it. Maybe paraFoam solves the problem.

Tested the paraFoam command on the same Windows porting distribution and the reader problem at time 0 persist. However I was able to run and visualize the case without any other issues. Like Tobi said, you should not worry.
