In A there is no  returning a2 on the 10th semiquaver. This obvious oversight was corrected in FE (→GE,EE).

In A Chopin overlooked the  raising c1 to c1 on the 3rd quaver. The mistake was corrected in FE (→GE,EE).

e2 in A

Lack of the  returning e2 on the 7th semiquaver and the  returning e2 two semiquavers later clearly suggests the use of the C minor chord in the middle of this bar. Chopin's proofreadings of FE (→GE,EE), however, ensure that, similarly as in bar 4, the composer's intention was the C major chord (in A analogous bar 37 is already written correctly).

b. 13

composition: Op. 10 No 7, Etude in C major

..

In A there is no  lowering a1 to a1 in the L.H. and the  lowering e2 to e2 on the 9th semiquaver in the R.H. The comparison with 11 analogous bars proves Chopin's oversight. In FE (→GE,EE) the accidentals were added.
