Is there a 20.7 build for Windows? You may want to try that, as some
of the earlier 20.x builds had bugs.

This looks like a problem with what you're asking emacs to do. The
error doesn't happen in the regular build; the stacktrace above is
from emacs' startup process. You may need to mess around with quoting,
or try putting the commands you want to execute into a file and load &
run that instead of eval'ing stuff on the command line.
Cheers,
Waider. That's from a cursory glance, btw, not an indepth analysis!
