I copied all the contents of the archive org-6.36c/lisp/ directory, into

Above is inaccurate, the .emacs load-path directories DO have the
trailing slash.

Thanks , will re-read the FAQ. Although it doesn't seem to refer to
installing or updating packages with Emacs, Like Org or Remember etc.
As I say, Emacs seems to find the Org 6.35c components in
C:/emacs/lisp/org/ It hasn't however ever generated .elc files
from them - and I think that may be wrong, but don't know.
