> Just unpacked the file emacs-26.2-x86_64.zip into the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\emacs 26.2\. However, when running C:\Program Files (x86)\emacs 26.2\bin\runemacs.exe, nothing happens. Am running Windows 7 Enterprise as a 64-bit Operating System. Didn't create any .init file nor change the PATH. Just tried to start from the \bin directory.
Does it help to add C:\Program Files (x86)\emacs 26.2\bin to PATH?
What happens if you run C:\Program Files (x86)\emacs 26.2\bin\emacs.exe?
Btw, the installation directory is incorrect: the Emacs you downloaded
is a 64-bit executable, so should be installed into the 64-bit
directory C:\Program Files\emacs 26.2\.
