I've just tested out and I see that under windows the default it to have the whole path (including drive:) ending in lilypond-windows.exe so my suggestion was overly sketchy, sorry! Perhaps you could do an test: in the folder .denemo-2.5.6 there should be a file denemorcV2 and the first entry after Config is a line like this: <lilypath>Z:\home\rshann\mxe\mxe\usr\i686-w64-mingw32.shared\bin\lilypond-windows.exe</lilypath> if you delete this entire line then start denemo then look in prefs you should find it has re-made the entry. If you copy that and then test (using command.com) with dir Z:\home\rshann\mxe\mxe\usr\i686-w64-mingw32.shared\bin\lilypond-windows.exe to see if it exists and indeed test that Z:\home\rshann\mxe\mxe\usr\i686-w64-mingw32.shared\bin\lilypond-windows.exe myfile.ly actually works for some simple LilyPond file myfile.ly (such as { c d e} which should typeset three notes then we will be closer to the truth no doubt - at the moment I admit I'm baffled by the symptoms.
