[...] But I suspect the best way to reset everything in order to start again would be to make a backup by renaming the directory as you currently do and then do a fresh install of the Windows 64-bit version using nothing but Windows command line commands. Don't do anything with MSYS2 until you first have it working in Windows.
Many thanks for your help, Bruce. I think I have solved the issue, but I’m afraid I cannot fix it. Windows 1x has a thing called “Virus and thread protection” (part of “Windows Security”). Anytime I have tried to run latest `context.exe` (64bit only [32bit is still fine]), the thread protection logs a low-risk action blocked. What is that? Well, not being administrator on the OS not even tells which binary caused this (not to mention what the action was). It seems to be caused by a (n unknown to me filtering) rule. Sorry for the noise and wasting your time (both Hans and Bruce), since the root of the problem has always been elsewhere. Many thanks for your patient help, Pablo
