There are recent changes in autorevert.el. If possible, file
notifications will be used, in order to be triggered by the file system
if a file is modified. For Windows systems, the new function
`w32notify-add-watch' is used.
Likely, it is not possible to enable file notifications for mounted file
systems under Windows. In that case, `w32notify-add-watch' shall return
nil, and the code in auto-revert.el shall fall back to the previous
implementation.
Could you, please, check what
(w32notify-add-watch "t:\myfile" '(size last-write-time) 'ignore)
returns?
Best regards, Michael.
