I think the decision pretty much was to use USERPROFILE. There was one exception: If c:\.emacs existed then this should be used instead. (See for example http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2004-10/msg01168.html). It does not seem like this has been implemented. Are there any objections do this?
