David,
The problem is now solved. It appears that ParaView does not work with Python
3? Is this true?
While I tried calling ParaView from Maltab, I got error message like this:
File "C:\Python34\Lib\site.py", line 176
file = sys.stderr)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
which according to a post on Stack Overflow, indicates an error occurring
when trying to run Python 3 script using Python 2 interpreter.
I then removed Python path from PATH variable and also removed PYTHONPATH
variable and ParaView was working again.
So is it true that ParaView is not compatible with Python 3?

Thanks for the response, David.
What you suggested did change the symptom a bit. After I remove the ini file, I
was able to see the Paraview logo appear after I execute it, which I did not
see prior to the removal.
However, the window still doesn't show up. Is there anything else I can do?

Try removing your paraview settings.
On windows this should be at:%APPDATA%\ParaView\ParaView4.2.0.ini
Elsewhere it is at:
~/.config/Paraview/ParaView4.2.0.ini
