The title on the console window makes me think that you are executing emacs.exe, not runemacs.exe. Try to execute the later by double-clicking on it from the Windows Explorer. If doing this works as expected, check the shortcut you use for starting Emacs and that is suppossed to invoke runemacs.exe. > If it is a bug, where does it get reported? M-x report-emacs-bug
