setup.exe creates shortcuts for the terminal that when used, Windows complains about missing files. I've narrowed down the problem to line 200 of /setup/desktop.cc:
#define TARGET "/bin/mintty"
needs to be:
#define TARGET "/bin/mintty.exe"
Windows seems to require the file extension for its shortcut target field
