I am dragging the image onto the pharo.exe in a newlynamed folder using an
install whose README says date of Feb 25

COPY

Pharo 3.0
This distribution was built February 25, 2014.

as for that pharo.exe

created and last mod date is 12 7 2013

the dir is

   C:\Pharo3.0-winB\Pharo3.0

and the dates for that Pharo3.0 dub-dir is today a few hours ago

so if a drag-drop of

Pharo-30782.image

onto that exe in that same folder has some obscure path issue, that is a
worry I would think.
