Thanks Rainer,
That is probably something left over from an older installation of
Emacs. Could you perhaps try to delete or rename the c:/Emacs23/
directory and install Emacs again?

It is a bit related to the installer for Emacs+EmacsW32 that I
distribute. I have written it so that it does not delete the old Emacs
tree, but I think that is a mistake.
I think I will let it delete the emacs directory before installation. It
should be (rather) safe since a user should not put files there.
Any thoughts on this?
