Hi Jürgen, > Is at least one directory in you runtimepath writable?
As far as I can tell, they should all be writable (I usually start Vim from an Administrator cmd session). As a matter of fact, "zg" worked fine at least up to March 20. I update regularly Vim, through the nightly distribution and through recompiling under Ubuntu. The nightly build Vim update, of course, would fail if I had no proper authorizations. I also regularly update Windows (I am in Windows Insiders). Maybe the thing is WIndows related. We could put this on hold, and I will try again with the next version of Windows. And, always as far as I can tell, both in the WIndows and in the Ubuntu environments, "spellfile" gets a value only AFTER I give a "zg" command. >From that side, maybe the problem is in some Windows related "ifdef". I will try and see if I can get to it. Also, I am not aware of any plugin that deals with "spellfile" (I am not in the "plugin" business, per se, but I gladly accept what comes with the Vim distribution).
