Sorry, this step is missing on Wiki (forgotten). Can you try the following: Open command line (Start->Run->cmd) and do either a) or b): a) "cd" to directory where cdemo.bat resides, execute it and exit (this will set the path for you) b) execute (this should be in one line): C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex\setuptex.bat C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex (change "C:\Programs\context" to the proper folder) Then execute texexec --make --all The last one is the crucial step for making formats. Perhaps "making formats" should be present in menu in Scite (perhaps it already is, I can't check from here).
