64 bit Windows systems

--------------------------+-------------------------------------
 On clean installs of the QGIS 3.4.3 Standallone Installers for 32 and 64
 bit builds for Windows systems, the ''GDAL Merge'' tool produces images
 with only zero values in all pixels when the result is saved to a
 temporary file (if not, the merged file is well generated but the command
 output is the same).

 Manually solved from the ''OSGeo4W.bat'' (as Administrator) shell:

 {{{

  After that, ''Merge'' tool works fine and without error logs.
