In A (→FE1) there is no  raising c1 to c1 at the beginning of the 2nd group of semiquavers. That patent oversight of Chopin was corrected by Fontana in FC (→GE) and FE2 (EE). The accidental is also in FCI.

b. 11

composition: Op. 28 No. 7, Prelude in A major

..

In A (→FE,FC→GE1) there is no  raising d2 to d2. In the context of a similar move in b. 3, it is a patent oversight, corrected by the revisers of GE2 and EE. Sharps, coming from Chopin, were added in pencil in FED, FES and FESch; both sharps are also in CXI. On the basis of the poorly legible photocopy of CGS at the disposal of the editors of mUltimate Chopin, it is difficult to clearly interpret the notation of that source; however, it is most likely that they are two sharps.

b. 11

composition: Op. 28 No. 9, Prelude in E major

..

In A (→FE) and CGS, there are no accidentals in the L.H. part in the entire bar. Chopin's patent inaccuracy was corrected by Fontana in FC (→GE), who added naturals lowering G1-G to G1-G and D1-D to D1-D. An identical addition was introduced in EE. The accidentals were also added in FED.
