What if you add the -Q switch to the command line in the properties of that shortcut? does the problem still happen? > One possible cause of the problem is that I first unzipped the > installation into c:\emacs-22.3 > and then ran the addpm.exe program in bin.

The same idea I already mentioned: what port of RCS are you using? Can it, by chance, be an old DOS port? What do you see if you right-click on rcsdiff.exe and co.exe in the Windows Explorer, and select Properties? -- do you see a Program tab there?
