Hi Keith

 

You don't have unzip in your path. I've met the same problem first time I use Hans' minimal context distribution on Windows. Then I download a gnuwin32 version of unzip from:

and I extract the files under /bin directory to $where I extract Hans' wincontext$\usr\local\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin

Then it's OK now

I'm having a bit of a problem when I run

texmfstart ctxtools --update

The output is given below.

I'm using the standalone version on WindowsXP.
I use 7-Zip as my zip file tool and have that in my path.  I set this
through windows control panel>System>Advanced>Environment variables.  I'm
beginning to wonder if "make sure that you have 'unzip' in your path" means
something else?

Any tips?

Thanks
