Hi Arash, hi all,

Ok, so AUCTeX works just fine in a vanilla setup.

So you get the issue when you start emacs with your setup, right?  If
so, we have dig through your config file.

You can try 2 things:

• Restart Emacs, do 'M-x toggle-debug-on-error RET' and then open the
  file in order to trigger the issue.  See what the debugger says.

Here comes the output of that, but shortened, since there's a lot of repetition going on...

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Lisp nesting exceeds ‘max-lisp-eval-depth’")

Does it help, if I tell you that the function LaTeX-mode() is from ~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-14.0.4/latex.el and latex-mode() is from c:/Program Files/Emacs/emacs-28.1/share/emacs/28.1/lisp/textmodes/tex-mode.el ?

When I check the buffers, mwe.tex is in 'Text' mode.


• Rename your init file and make a new one containing only your AUCTeX
  setup.  Then restart Emacs, do 'M-x toggle-debug-on-error RET' and
  open your .tex file again.

I reduce init.el to (most comments ';;' ommitted)

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(custom-set-variables
 '(package-selected-packages
   '(auctex)))
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Funny:  WITHOUT toggle-debug-on-error, here the file opens and reloads (C-x C-v) just fine, AUCTeX works. WITH toggle-debug-on-error, opening the file produces the following (the buffer list still shows the file in latex mode but  reloading (C-x C-v) the file after that gives a buffer in 'Fundamental' mode)...
