I said above that I renamed .emacs and also .emacs.d. but it did not help.

C:/Users/testuser448/.emacs. I set HOME=C:/Users/testuser448 and I have
confirmed using Process Monitor from SysInternals that emacs finds it there
when HOME is set, and did not find it when I renamed it. Alternative
locations
appear to be C:/ and %APPDATA%, where .emacs does not exist.
Alternatively if you give a command that will display a message I can
put it in .emacs.
If I set HOME=<blank>, it does not make a difference.
For what it is worth, the problem does not occur on my Windows XP
virtual machine, which never had emacs on it before. I am on Windows 8.1.
In my initial message, I said that if I run emacs.exe within gdb, gdb says
that
emacs exited with code 03. Do you know what that means?
