AFAICT, the installer was also updated. If you are sure you
installed the new version, perhaps you should completely
uninstall the previous one first?
I had already completely uninstalled first (including checking
the directory manually to see it was empty).
AFAIK, at least one other person confirmed that this new
distribution fixed the problem.
AFAIR, the problem was caused by the fact that libgccjit was
present, but as.exe was not. So if you have libgccjit DLL
somewhere on your system, either on PATH or in the same
directory where emacs.exe lives, just getting it out of the way
ore renaming it could be what you need.
From the installer itself there is a
c:/Program Files/Emacs/emacs-29.4/bin/libgccjit-0.dll
But doesn't setting `native-comp-jit-compilation' to nil
accomplish the same workaround a little more easily? (I added this
to my early-init yesterday while I'm figuring out the problem.)
Also I think that DLL is missing from emacs-29.4.zip. Was that the
"packaging error"; i.e. should it *not* be present in the
installer exe?
If the above doesn't help either, I suggest a full-fledged bug
report, so that the person who produces these installers (that's
not me) could investigate.
Done.
Thanks and regards,
