Well, I thought about that too, so just before sending my last e-mail, I went directly into tramp-sh.el, commented out tramp-inline-compress, and replaced it with the corrected version. Then I relaunched emacs -Q. It did not change anything.

I just tried what you suggested ( emacs -Q -l tramp -l tramp-sh, then setting tramp-inline-compress-start-size to nil). It does not work either, I still get the same error. Attached is tramp log.

Best regards,

Guillaume

Hmm, it might be that at this point Tramp was not loaded yet. So it has
been loaded, and the old function has overwritten the patched one ...

It behaves like yesterday, that's why I believe the patch was not
active.

Anyway, I meanwhile believe Tramp should suppress compressing at all
when running on MS-Windows. Could you throw the patch away, and try the
following:

emacs -Q -l tramp -l tramp-sh

This loads tramp.el and tramp-sh.el. Afterwards, eval the following form
in *scratch*

(setq tramp-inline-compress-start-size nil)

Now everything will work fine, I hope.
