Two problems before:
(1) I got the error message
(Shell command failed with code 1 and no output)
Even when the files / programs / directories would open as desired. This
was still undesirable buggy behavior.
(2) Each time I launched Emacs I had to switch to the other directory
string format to get back (1). This made no sense at all. To be specific:
(a) "E:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe"
had to be switched to:
(b) "E:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe"
in the body of the code I cited in the first e-mail, if (a) was what I
had the previous Emacs launch. And (b) had to be switched back to (a) if
(b) was what I had the previous Emacs launch.
It's also possible the alternating was dependent on a Windows reset. I
had only been launching Emacs once per Windows session.
