Those files are not included in the source distribution, but some precompiled distributions use them to define their own customizations. The OP said he's using a precompiled distribution on Windows, so it's possible it was packaged with site-start.el and/or default.el files; or that he or an administrator updated them at some point thereafter. He also said that he copied "all of the .el files that were referenced" (in his .emacs, I'm guessing), so copying _all_ of the .el and .elc files (for freedom and speed, resp.) would get him closer to a proper installation without starting all over. Of course, it still leaves the various info/* and etc/* files and lib-src executables. -- Kevin Rodgers Denver, Colorado, USA
