I had the same problem. I ran regedit and navigated to this key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\gvim.exe\shell\open\command It was still pointing at the earlier version of vim. I updated it to point at the vim70 folder instead, and then things worked properly again. Check the edit\command key as well, as long as you're there. gvim appears in the "open with" list now and all is well.
