I just started a new job, and I’ve installed vim and gvim on the machine. I’m trying to get my .vimrc working, I’ve placed it in the directory that %USERPROFILE% points to, but vim isn’t picking it up.

But while %USERPROFLE% does point to C:\users\<me-name> I’ve noticed that My documents are stored on an external share somewhere.

The share is also mapped…and I’ve tried putting .vimrc out there to, to no avail.

Is there some other place I can put .vimrc ?

    In windows, the .vimrc file is stored as _vimrc

    For more information Refer: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Open_vimrc_file

    It has all the information you need and more.
