Which errors specifically?  And how did you invoke emacsclientw in
this case, exactly?  Please show the complete command line used to
invoke emacsclientw.

Also, for the record: how did you start the daemon "on startup"?

I don't know.  Let's forget the wiki for now, shall we?  AFAIU, you
aren't supposed to need any shortcuts, as long as you invoke
emacsclientw by hand from the cmd prompt.  If that works, let's take
it from there step by step.
