Whenever I create a new *.org file, I get this error message:

File mode specification error: (error "'recenter'ing a window that does
not display current-buffer.")

This will be tricky for others to debug without a minimal config to
trigger it.  For debugging on your end, you could find out where the
error is happening by setting debug-on-error to t and looking at the
backtrace.
