> The keyboard-escape-quit is bound to M-ESC ESC, however, in Windows 7, the "M-ESC" is captured by the

Try "C-M-[ ESC" instead.

> I aslo tried ESC ESC ESC, and it reported that "<escape> ESC is undefined".

I cannot reproduce the problem with ESC ESC ESC, it works fine for me

"emacs -Q", where it produces the "undefined" error?
