I start it from a desktop shortcut, with this info:

  Target: D:\Emacs-24.4\bin\emacs.exe -Q --debug-init -nw
  Start in: 

Start in is empty.  Same thing if I put an existing directory in `Start in' (e.g. d:\usr\me\foo).  Same thing if I also put that directory at the end of the `Target' line, enclosed in "" (i.e., to open it with Dired).

I see nothing about Emacs there. I'm looking in Computer Management > Event Viewer > Applications and Services Logs. And when I click the X and then click "Close the program", nothing seems to change in that viewer.

Should I drill down into one of the subdirs (none of which seem related to Emacs)? If so, which one? There are zillions of subsubsubfolders etc.
