Confirmed
I can confirm this on a clean Windows XP SP3 box. Likely Audacity bundled the incorrect Visual C runtime again and we missed fixing it when packaging. I'll have an update done shortly.
Side note: You really should install SP3 as SP2 support ended years ago.
Update: That was the issue. Fix is built and mirroring. Posting shortly.

Fixed in 2.0.1 Rev 2
This is fixed in Audacity Portable 2.0.1 Rev 2. We'll be double-checking releases in the future to ensure this doesn't happen again.

Thanks.
The reason that I
Thanks.
The reason that I stick with SP2 is that the install size is very small & it starts & runs like greased lightning.
