Hmmm, version 2011-11-11 is the last MSWindows build using the old toolchain. After that I switched.
This makes me again beleave there are traces of the old installation left which are now mixed up when using the newer version. I would say check it again and check carefully if there is not a directory with an odd name which also contains the PSPP software somehow. Maybe you can check again from a commandline prompt but now switch to the directory containing psppire.exe before starting it. And use something like "psppire.exe > error.txt" when starting. Maybe this will give you some information in the newly created error.txt file.
