Urs I agree I have tried dragging a "good" desktop file onto the Lilypond short cut and nothing happens. Re-installing Lily has made things worse (the latest 2.19.6 version cannot be downloaded but I had a saved file.)

If Frescobaldi fails you would either get an error pop-up or in severe cases the Window might disappear. If you can read about an error in the log window it's most likely a LilyPond error. Please compile your files directly using LilyPond from the command line, then report what is happening.
