How about making emacs close when I hit the "close window" button on Windows 7?


Oh, I thought that was the crash button.


It closes for me fine. Just tested it to be sure.


Do you start emacs.exe or runemacs.exe?


Manually runemacs.exe, but I'm not sure which mode Windows has chosen to auto-associate with *.log files.


> Windows 7

Found the issue.


That may very well be the problem, especially since on shutdown/logout Windows 7 always shows some items not closing, even if none are left. But emacs is about 50-50 on closing while other things always go away.
