I notice that when I start Emacs (rev. 117589, MSYS2/MinGW64 build), the
buffer which is active (that on which I worked in the previous session)
does not display the horizontal scroll bar (HSB).
Switching to another buffer, this DISPLAYS the HSB. Switching back to
the first buffer, now it DISPLAYS the HSB..
Is this to be expected?
Thanks,
Angelo.

This might be a result from switching from a non-horizontal scrollbar
build to a horizontal scrollbar build. If this problem persists, that
is, if it occurs with a desktop saved in a horizontal scrollbar build
please write a bug report. In any case, it might be good to fix this
incompatibility for people changing from older to newer builds and
vice-versa.

Hmm... I don't understand.. As I have explained [1], my builds are done
from scratch in a clean tree, so I think I am not switching from a
"non-horizontal scrollbar build to a horizontal scrollbar build".
For example, with rev. 117599 (MSYS2/MinGW64 build) and with only this
file in %APPDAT%/.emacs.d,
$ cat %APPDAT%/.emacs.d/init.el
;; Instead to save in ~/.emacs.desktop
(setq desktop-base-file-name "~/.emacs.d/desktop")
;; Instead to save in ~/.emacs.desktop.lock
(setq desktop-base-lock-name "~/.emacs.d/desktop.lock")
;; Save desktop
(desktop-save-mode t)
the following occurs.
Start Emacs with the link created by addpm (i.e. pointing to runemacs).
The frame shows the scratch buffer and both scrolling bars (HSB and VSB)
are visible.
Now visit a file, for example init.el itself: C-x C-f .../init.el
Now close Emacs (click on the 'X' icon on the top-right angle). Emacs
asks to save desktop. YES
Now restart Emacs with the same link. Emacs opens showing init.el file
but with only the vertical scroll bar (VSB).
Now switch to previous buffer with mouse-1: the scratch buffer is
visible with both the HSB and VSB.
Now switch to the next buffer with mouse-3. init.el is visible with both
scrolling bar.
So, only when one starts Emacs, the buffer active (that on which the
user was working in the previous session before it is closed) does not
show the HSB. Just switch to another buffer and also the first acquires
the HSB.
If it is a bug I will report it to bug list.
Ciao,
Angelo.
