No, I mean that I can't check the box that allows me to open all files
without extensions in emacs. Every time I want to open another one I
have to click on the emacsclient icon again. In w2000 (through a
registry entry) I could have Emacs open all such files, no more
questions asked.

Okay.  I (rightly or wrongly) take windex to be part of the os. One of
the first things I do is to turn extensions back on.

A new behavior on w64 is that "buffer whatever still has clients" when
I try to close it. Is that more evidence that  I have things set up
wrong? Anyway, thanks for the help.
