Unable to follow instructions to install on windows #1082

Open masonedmison opened 3 years ago

Explain the problem here ...

I have followed the instructions to install vim on windows (using git bash as terminal for all commands and vim interaction) and include the plug scope in my vimrc but when I source the vimrc I get 

Error detected while processing /c/Users/edmisml/_vimrc:
line   64:
E117: Unknown function: plug#begin

Output of powershell install:

/usr/share/vim/vim82/ suggest mingw or wsl. That requires ~/.vim. ~/vimfiles is for native Windows.

@janlazo @masonedmison Hopefully you were able to resolve the issue; the suggestion to install into ~/.vim worked for me on Windows. Somewhat un-intuitive since Vundle [previous plug-in manager] installed fine into ~/vimfiles but yeahiwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim ni $HOME/.vim/autoload/plug.vim -Force was what finally worked to install the plugins
