Why can't the Alert Framework - RedAlert app find my shell script to run?

I have tried many different options on the configuration screen, but I always get the same result in the "Interesting Events : Last 24 Hours" panel:

2015-08-12 15:43:47,571 ERROR [ALERTS] action=SHELL, id="LAR_TEST", err="[Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified" >> r:\lar_test_alert.bat 

I have tried putting it in %SPLUNK_HOME%\/bin\/scripts but nothing so far works. This can't be that hard - it should be written down in the app help, but it isn't.

I already tried that, but it didn't work.

I don't think this app will run on 6.2.4.
