What if you type "emacs-26.1\bin\emacs -Q", does that also exit
immediately?

> First I downloaded and unpacked emacs-26.2-i686.zip from a mirror and it didn't work. I then tried emacs-26.2-x86_64.zip emacs-26.1-x86_64.zip from the ftp.gnu.org site, as well as the no-deps version with emacs-26-x86_64-deps unpacked on top. None of them worked. I moved the unpacked tree from <me>\Downloads to c:\GNU but that didn't seem to help either.

How did you unpack the zip files, exactly?  Please describe what
utility/program you used to unpack, what did you type/click/select
etc., step by step.
