After = following the download instructions for Windows, clicking on the runemacs.e= xe icon has no apparent effect. Running emacs from the command prompt with = a --help argument produces the Usage: line and list of command line options= . Running emacs as: emacs-26.1\bin\emacs --batch -eval (message \"hi there\") produces the expected string: hi there so apparently command line parsing and elisp execution works. However, runn= ing just emacs-26.1\bin\emacs returns almost immediately with no output, an= d so does emacs-26.1\bin\emacs -nw. First I downloaded and unpacked emacs-26.2-i686.zip from a mirror and it di= dn't work. I then tried emacs-26.2-x86_64.zip emacs-26.1-x86_64.zip from th= e ftp.gnu.org site, as well as the no-deps version with emacs-26-x86_64-dep= s unpacked on top. None of them worked. I moved the unpacked tree from = \Downloads to c:\GNU but that didn't seem to help either. I installed 26.1-x86_64 on a Windows 10 laptop last year (in c:\GNU) and it= works just fine. Both PCs are set up by my employer's IT department, presu= mably using the same procedure. I can't figure out what's different on this= system. Using "run as administrator" doesn't seem to make any difference. Can someone please advise me what might be wrong, or what I can try next? /Joe The content of this message is APPLIED MATERIALS CONFIDENTIAL.
