I have the same setup and had a similar problem after
installing the new releases to $vim\vimfiles or ~\vimfiles.
Do you still have the distribution copy of netrw v98
installed to $vimruntime?
If so, either remove it (all 6 files) or make the following
change to $vim\plugin\netrwPlugin.vim:
Replace (right after the "Load Once" line):
if exists("g:loaded_netrw")
finish
endif
with:
if exists("g:loaded_netrwPlugin")
finish
endif
let g:loaded_netrwPlugin = 1
