By "Explorer", are you referring to netrw? If not, ignore the rest of this note, please. Netrw does not provide a "Diff with Vim". It does allow you to select files (shift-leftmouse -or- mf), then select [Netrw:Marked Files:Diff] This process uses vim's diffthis on the marked files. The self-installing version of vim under Windows includes a diff program with it; vim doesn't do diff on its own. If you have a diff.exe (from which I'm inferring that you're using Windows) make sure that its on your Windows path. My windows speak is rusty; that may be %PATH% ? Someone please correct me on that.
