If you workaround #1175 by manually finding the run-tilemill.bat double clicking to start still does not work.

Running the command from the console directly does work:

cd c:\Program Files (x86)\TileMill

In the case of win8, sometimes the logs show partial server start and the console windows stays open (after minimizing). Sometimes the console window immediately closes.

Running from the command line works just fine.
