Can't install in windows. Complaining CTAGS not installed. #143

CTAGS is running in my path. I used chocolatey to install CTAGS. When I open VIM and it's complaining that CTAGS is not installed.

I also used this setting in my vimrc...

:let g:easytags_cmd = 'C:/ProgramData/chocolatey/bin/ctags.exe

Did I missed anything?

What version of VIM you are using? I recently switched to pure Windows gVim 8.0 on my Win7 and hit the same issue. After some troubleshooting it looks like old Exubernat Ctags no longer work. I had to install Universal Ctags which is maintained version of ctags. You can get that Git for Windows SDK (like I did) or from MSYS2.
