I'm no windows user, but my guess is that the C-c is trapped by the
terminal/shell window which then sends a signal to emacs as a result.
(This is all unix terminology I'm using here, not sure how well it
maps to the windows setting.)
Use M-x save-windows-kill-emacs to get out. This is the command run
by C-x C-c (when it works).
