Previously I've been using vim without any problems. However a few months ago our company made some network and security updates. After that whenever I plug a network cable into my laptop, it creates a network shared drive "H" with my company name and when I try to open vim it doesn't load plugins and other things that are in my vim home directory.
I have found the reason but I don't know how to solve it. The problem is that these network updates changed our HOME directory. When I write:
echo $HOME
It prints H. Before plugging in a network cable my home was C:\Users\blabla.
How can I change my HOME variable? When I run set
it prints:
C:\Windows\System32>set | findstr /R "^HOME"
HOMEDRIVE=H:
HOMEPATH=\
HOMESHARE=\\companyname\blabla\username$
2I can't change HOME because of it is used by other company applications. Are there any other options ? – caltuntas – 2011-10-13T10:32:43.250
@mcaaltuntas - Put your _vimrc and \vimfiles according to the described scheme then (that is the "echo $vim" directory). All of this is described in the "help vimfiles" part of help. – Rook – 2011-10-13T14:05:49.490
