Usually, yes (because if I haven't saved in every buffer, I don't like
leaving auto-save files around).

Not usually, no, but if I deliberately leave Emacs running when
telling Windows to restart, then I do find a "server" file in that
directory (and the pop-up error appears).

Yes.
I was not aware that I was not exiting Emacs, but in a hard Windows
abort/restart, of course, there is no opportunity to exit Emacs.
Still, I appreciate that the problem is arguably external to Emacs.
That said, the pop-up error really shouldn't need dismissal by the
user when there is either ALTERNATE_EDITOR or --alternate-editor. In
that configuration, it's not clear that the error should even be
reported -- except perhaps as a warning (to inform the user why the
alternate editor was launched).
Thanks!
