* rsync sometimes has problems with paths with uppercase letters (like <code>c:\Temp</code> or <code>C:\Documents and Settings</code>). Installing into all-lowercase paths without spaces sometimes helps.
* Directory-name length may also have an effect, due to Windows's 8.3 filename conventions. An indicator is if running "texexec --lua" on a file produces missing-file warnings containing Windows-created 8-character directory names, such as "C:\CONTEX~1\tex", where your ConTeXt directory is really "C:\context_minimals\tex". Be conservative and choose a short name like "C:\ctm\tex". This Also, this may even work when an 8-character-or-less directory name like "C:\ctexmin\tex" doesn't.
* If you're behind firewall and rsync times out, you need to open port 873 for outgoing TCP connections.
