Similiar issues were reported here[1] and here[2].  Can you please
delete AUCTeX via package manager, i.e., really delete and not moving
from `installed' into `dependency', restart Emacs, reinstall AUCTeX and
see if it helps?

Best, Arash

A few days ago I upgraded all packages using the command U. Also auc-tex
has been updated to

    Status: Installed in =E2=80=98auctex-13.0.1/=E2=80=99. Delete
    Version: 13.0.1


Today I want to compile a LaTeX file using XeLaTeX
but I get the folowing error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Nonexpansion file")
  signal(error ("Nonexpansion file"))
  error("Nonexpansion %s" file)
  TeX-command-expand("xelatex -interaction=3Dnonstopmode %s")
  TeX-command("XeLaTeX" TeX-master-file nil)
  TeX-command-master()
  TeX-command-menu("XeLaTeX")
  menu-function-53()
  funcall-interactively(menu-function-53)
  call-interactively(menu-function-53 nil nil)
  command-execute(menu-function-53)


Thanks for your help!
Nikolaus Thiel
