I was a handful of minor releases behind at thetime.After the update, I can't start Emacs from the icon anymore. Theshortcutcommand I have for it is the following:C:\Cygwin\bin\run.exe -p /usr/bin bash -l -i -c "emacs -display127.0.0.1:0.0 --debug-init" I don't think this has anything to do with emacs. There have been several reports of problems with run-1.3.0-1. Try downgrading to the previous version of run, or switch to run2.I first tried just changing the command line to "run2". No change.run2 is not a drop-in replacement for run. If you want to use it, you have to install the run2 package and read the documentation. Or you could run the script /usr/bin/make-emacs-shortcut, which creates a shortcut that uses run2.I already had run2 installed. I ran "make-emacs-shortcut". I moved the resulting shortcut to the desktop, giving it a new name. I double-clicked it. Nothing happened. I than created a cmd window and pasted in the command line from the shortcut and ran it. Nothing. I then pasted in the command line from the old shortcut, and Emacs came up.
I'd like to find out what went wrong with the shortcut created by make-emacs-shortcut. What's the target? And what are the contents of the emacs.xml file that it uses?
