Re: What does "dlopen, Win32 error 126" mean ?

[Mats Bengtsson]

You cannot run lilypond from a Windows command prompt, you have to run
it from the Cygwin command prompt, which you open by clicking on the
"Cygwin" icon or start menu item.

However, the easiest way to process the file on a Windows machine, is
simply to double click in the .ly file, as described at
http://lilypond.org/web/download/windows.html
The same page will answer also your last question, even though there
should be no need to change the installation.
