"Recovering a Windows Emacs from backup" is probably not the best idea
since it is under furious development (surprisingly so for a 30 year old
piece of software) and a lot of focus is on making it less of "a Unix
thang".

If you want to give it a fair try, you should install a reasonably
current version.  It won't be easier to understand, but you'll be able
to do a lot even without understanding.  Are you married?
