And the command you are running is? > I have a similar icon for 21.4.18, and that doesn't demonstrate the same > problem, although 21.4.18 always runs a cmd window in the background, > which 21.4.13 does not. I think what affected your installation is a change of version of Xemacs not the Cygwin dll. This works for me with no problem: C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe xemacs that is the target of the shortcut. If you set the icon of this shortcut to use the xemacs executable icon (i.e. C:\Cygwin\bin\xemacs-21.4.18.exe) that will show the icon until the next change of version.
