Is the shutdown routine more powerful than the close routine activated
from the Window List? Apparently it closed C:\chkdsk.log and the C:
partition without any problems but had a problem with the M: partition (a
test partition) to which I recently xcopied G:. M should not have been in
use for anything.

Why trouble with M: ? (Just trying to learn)
