I have downloaded and unpacked again, after deleting the two folders I
mentioned. This time there is
only one folder, emacs-24.2. Running emacs now causes the error message
"Creating directory:
no such file or directory, c:/emacs-23.4/.emacs.d/
Presumably there is an out-of-date file in the distribution.
