I start emacs from a shortcut on the desktop with target: C:\Emacs\bin\runemacs.exe --debug-init Environment: ALTERNATE_EDITOR c:\emacs\bin\runemacs.exe HOME C:\emacs [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\open] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\open\command] @="c:\\emacs\\bin\\emacsclientw.exe -n \"%1\"" and this same string in many other places, as well as file associations for about 30 file extensions, etc. Maybe the answer is as simple as renaming C:\emacs as c:\emacs22 and then c:\emacs23 as c:\emacs. That way all the paths should be correct in the registry. I may need a new auctex and a few other things for emacs ver. 23.
