"Trouble launching CVS process" when using TortoiseCVS

When using TortoiseCVS, as I checkout a module, dialog (see screenshot) telling me "Trouble launching CVS process", "The handle is invalid". Any idea on how this would be happening?

In my case, cvs.exe was not found in the CVSNT folder. I am pretty sure that I didn't delete it. Reinstalling the TortoiseCVS fixed the issue.

Set a path to your NT cvs installation folder (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\CVSNT). Worked fine for me.

Reinstalling TortoiseCVS solved the problem. I had another concurrent install at the time of the first TortoiseCVS install, and that must have messed things up.

shouldn't it be in the form of a file URL?

is cvs.exe added to the path?

which version of tortoise? cvs? there was a bug reported with that description, according to google.
