We don't know the full path for executable.

I'm trying to create universal installer suitable for both standalone bzr.exe and for python-based
bzr installation. That's why I don't try to found actual bzr executable file.

I'm thinking about problem with launching bzr explore on your computer from installer,
and I think it's worth trying to slightly change command-line, e.g.

cmd /c bzr explorer

May be this helps. But this idea have to be tested on the computer where the problem can be reproduced.
