After installing gVim and running gvim from the run window, if I were

there.
But if I were to run gvim.exe from its installation folder, and I
type :cd followed by tab, I would get \autoload, \colors, etc. which
means I'm at the installation folder.
And if I were to pin gvim.exe on to taskbar, upon launch and
typing :cd then tab, I will get \Dictionaries and upon hitting tab
again I get a beep.
I think for the last scenario, I'm at some Adobe folder. Anybody knows
how to fix this weird issue? I'd like to pin it to taskbar and upon
launch, start in the $HOME directory (C:\Users\Fabian).
If you run [g]vim by invoking it at the command prompt (be it the prompt
of a Unix shell such as sh, ash, bash, csh, tcsh, ksh, zsh, ... or of a
Dos/Windows shell like command.com, cmd.exe, ndos.com, 4nt.exe, ...), it
inherits whichever directory was current when you typed the command.
If you run it by clicking a desktop or system-tray icon, then either the
icon properties specify a starting directory (and you get that) or they
don't (and you can get anything).
