Comment (by kpdyer):

 Gotcha.

 (1) Does FTE work when used via the TBB GUI? If so, then (2) will fix your
 problem.
 (2) You probably don't have the directory with FTE's DLLs in your PATH.
 Instead of running

 {{{
 C:\path\to\PluggableTransports> fteproxy.exe
 }}}

 you'll need to do something like

 {{{
 C:\path\to\PluggableTransports> PATH=%PATH%;Path\To\Tor
 C:\path\to\PluggableTransports> fteproxy.exe
 }}}

 I unfortunately don't have a windows box to test on, so it may not be
 quite right. The key is to ensure that ```libgmp-*.dll```, etc. are in
 your PATH. It looks like ```libgmp-*.dll``` is placed in the parent
 directory of ```PluggableTransports``` [1].
