It does not need a file name if you pass the -c argument to open a new
frame.
I have the following set up as the "Emacs" shortcut command:
C:\emacs\bin\emacsclientw.exe --no-wait -c --alternate-editor=""
Additionally, you need to have the following in the emacs startup files
(~/.emacs.d/init.el or site-lisp/default.el):
(server-start)
A blank --alternate-editor (or -a) option starts the daemon on-demand if
it is not already running. If you've started it already at startup,
then it should reuse that.
