I think I already answered your concern a couple of years ago on TeX.se: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/328289/31416 This is a problem with MiKTeX, which for some reasons is less informative when you ask for more information. The issue has been reported more than 4 years ago, but apparently no action has been taken so fare: https://sourceforge.net/p/miktex/bugs/2310/ If you want it to be fixed you should complain with MiKTeX developer. For your information, you can use TeX Live also on Windows, and it doesn't suffer from this issue. > Does -file-line-error really improve so much AucTeX's search for error > messages? Yes, we found that enabling file:line:error style greatly simplifies parsing of the output, as we don't have to do the complicated exercise of guessing which is the last open file.
