Gentle LyX folk,
I have installed LyX 2.3.3 on a Dell XPS laptop and, Lo, the installation's bin
directory appears to be missing lyxeditor.cmd, which is of course crucial for
inverse search. Is this an oversight? Or is it now in some other directory?
We don't distribute this file.
Huh. Unlike the macOS version, apparently. Why the difference with the Windows
distribution?
I guess Stephan includes it. Maybe Uwe used to as well? I could include
it, too, I suppose, but I'm not actually a Windows user. We really do
need someone who is to take over Windows packaging.
According to this page of the wiki:
https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/SyncTeX
it's something you need to create yourself.
The need to create lyxeditor.cmd is only mentioned in the section on Okular for
Windows. That one needs to create it oneself is as far as I can see not
mentioned in the section on configuring SumatraPDF, which is the PDF viewer I'm
using. Might the Keepers of the Wiki consider mentioning the need to create
this script right at the top of the section on SumatraPDF.
The wiki is, well, a wiki, so anyone can edit it.

I still think that the SumatraPDF section in the wiki might just be
rolled back. Everything seems to work fine for me without having the
lyxeditor.cmd.
