This arrangement is deprecated, and will cease to be supported in a future version of Emacs. Thus the warning. IOW, this is a feature, not a bug. I suggest to close this bug. > I believe previous emacs set HOME to %UserProfile% It will do that if you remove/rename C:\.emacs. > - regardless of the setting for emacs 24, its default should not > cause a warning, or at least the warning could a suggest remedy. This is a feature.
