When I installed emacs on windows I found, without my doing anything, it looked in the windows equivalent of ~, that is C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>
For example: C:\Documents and Settings\Mike
And as Richard suggested, setting an environment variable called HOME works great too.

Cannot put .emacs in C:\ (company policy). I tried putting it into
C:\.emacs.d (which
emacs created during weak moment in the PC setup yesterday). I tried in
"Documents and Settings\username". Nothing has worked. Help.
I am using emacs 21.3.1 for NT.
Thanks for any help anyone can give me.
Mike
