Is that a native Windows emacs? A Cygwin emacs shouldn't have any problem. Otherwise, if it's a native Windows emacs, could you try with the latest version of the "cygstart" tool instead of "run"? Alexander, does the latest "run" version have the stuff added to regenerate the Windows environment before calling CreateProcess, like cygstart has?
