Comment #5 on issue 28 by [email protected]: out of the box, gVim
7.3.46 for Win32 cannot write swap files on Windows 7
http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=28
I was just upgraded to Windows 7 at work and ran into this issue.
The problem is that Vim defaults the 'directory' option
to ".,C:\TMP,C:\Temp" but these directories either do not exist or are not
writeable.
Vim should instead use the $TMP and $TEMP environment variables instead of
hard-coded paths.
For now I have a workaround for the problem in my .vimrc like this:
