Subject: 24.4; Window controls missing
Date: Sat, 11 Jul 2015 09:17:07 -0400

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I shutdown a W510 Thinkpad laptop the previous night with several
applications open, using the normal shutdown method.  Upon startup this
morning, all applications open when shutdown, opened again.  All open
normally but emacs 24 was missing the controls on the top left and top
right.  I have an image that shows the whole window, attached.  Doing a [File]
[Close] then restarting the app, the controls are present.  I have had
this problem many times, although sometimes emacs does start correctly.

(I'm going through old bug reports that have unfortunately not gotten
any responses.)

If you're still seeing this problem:

What controls (on the top left and top right) were missing?  Nothing
looked obviously wrong in the attached image to me.

More information was requested, but none was given within 1 year, so I'm
closing this bug.  If this is still an issue, please reply to this email
(use "Reply to all" in your email client) and we can reopen the bug
report.
