Ooop I have not read the above.

Copy the below from 
http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Windows#Octave_3.8_MXE_Builds 

@echo off
set PATH=%CD%\bin\
start octave --force-gui -i --line-editing
exit

paste the above to a text editor (notepad is OK)
and save it as octave-gui.bat in C:\octave\octave-3.8.1

After that 
1. right mouse click the 'Octave (Experimental GUI)' shortcut icon on the 
desktop or somewhere else and pull context menu and open 'property'. 
2. rewrite 'Link to' from  C:\octave\Octave-3.8.1\bin\octave-gui.exe to 
C:\octave\Octave-3.8.1\octave-gui.bat 
3. press OK to save the change 

You may need administrator privilege to carry out the above.
