Yes, I have the same problem as originally reported.
I have a .emacs file in my ~/ directory, i.e. c:\user. With the
following line:
(desktop-read)
The problem occurs. Without the line, the problem goes away.
The problem occurs when the above line is the _only_ line in .emacs
My original .emacs file uses desktop-read in the following manner:
;; This enables saving the current desktop on shutdown.
;; The ESC-x desktop-save command must be given once
;; for this to work in perpetuity.
(desktop-load-default)
(desktop-read)
I've run the desktop-save command but that didn't solve the problem.
FWIW, desktop-save put its .emacs.desktop in c:/Program
Files/GNU/ntemacs22/bin (which seems reasonable). I copied the
.emacs.desktop file to c:/user but it didn't help.

Opening multiple copies was allowed before, but it leads to the last Emacs to exit clobbering the desktop file of the previous instances. You can set `desktop-load-locked-desktop' to t and Emacs won't ask you when loading the desktop (though it will still ask before overwriting the previous instance's desktop while exiting).

Since they worked, I never paid attention to them. Having multiple copies overwrite the previous desktop when exiting is behavior I don't mind. I've revised my .emacs file to include: (setq desktop-load-locked-desktop t) (desktop-save-mode 1) And things seem fine. Ciao, David ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

It will still ask you when exiting. If you really don't mind the last Emacs standing to win, you can add this to your .emacs: ;; slightly tested (add-hook 'kill-emacs-hook (lambda () (when (and desktop-dirname desktop-base-file-name) (condition-case nil (delete-file (expand-file-name desktop-base-file-name desktop-dirname)) (error nil))))) Juanma ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
