OP reports 2.6 with XP works.
Where do you see that, Terry? (Or was there an offlist email?)
Did that use VS 2005? Maybe C runtime changed (regressed).
That's possible -- and is essentially my main guess (faute de mieux). I've got the same results on 32 & 64-bit machines.
Hopefully the workaround I suggested -- doubling up the executable filepath -- will get round the user's particular issue. I'm not going to fight CRT changes, but if no-one else gets there, I will try to address issue8036
