I get the same. I suspect this is now a "feature" of windows' arcane
permissions settings. The simplest thing is to run lilypond from the command line, with
an explicit path to the program - something like:
C:\"Program Files (x86)"\LilyPond2.22.0\usr\bin\liliypond
You can either run this from the location of the ly file (not the desktop!) or
have an explicit fully stated path to the ly file. Alternatively you could add
the path to the lilypond .exe to your path statement.

Greetings,
I installed Lilypond 2.22.0 on Windows 10, then attempted to execute the
install test described in test.ly. The test failed; the file test-tmp-9203207
appeared on the desktop, but not test.pdf.
Here is test.log
# -*-compilation-*-

It appears that the conversion to PDF is failing. Any suggestions for fixing
the install?
Thanks in advance for your help.
