OK, I have did what you listed, before. I'm not sure how much of the path to
include in the value field, though. Should it be "C:\win32lib" or
"C:\win32lib\Include"
or "C:\win32lib\Include\win32lib.ew"? I've tried all of them... which all fail
to work. Also, what is "cmd.exe"? I have just been doing what
the text file says to do, which is open the console, go to the win32lib
directory and enter "exwc rundemos", which of course isn't working.
It says it can't find the win32lib.ew file.
