Hi! I'm keeping rkward-devel in CC. Others may be interested in compiling on Windows (and the associated pitfalls) as well.

Make sure your newly compiled rkward was really installed: cd %KDEROOT%\build\kdeapps\rkward-20121211\work\mingw4...\ (replace the dots as appropriate, of course) mingw32-make install (usually emerge should have done that, but it kind of looks like emerge got confused somewhere along the way). Double-check the file modification time of D:\kderoot\k\bin\rkward.exe and rkward.frontend.exe to make sure they are really the files you compiled, not some older version. 2. Remove D:\kderoot\k\bin\rkward.bat . This is a leftover of a previous installed version of rkward. The current version does not include this. This should have been removed by "emerge --unmerge rkward". I'm not sure, why it's still there. 3. Remove the desktop icon, too. You can re-create it, when all other causes of trouble are ruled out. 4. Open a console, and do cd D:\kderoot\k\bin rkward.exe (optionally "rkward.exe --debug-level 5", if problems persist). If all this works, you can create a shortcut to D:\kderoot\k\bin\rkward.exe on your Desktop. > 4.

Well, only in case problems persist: No, I do not need your build tree, or any other complete folder. I need *two text files* located somewhere in the Documents and Settings folder inside your home directory, *outside* your build tree.
