Using version fvim-win-x64-v0.3.548+g2e4087d-2-gee4316c. Tried to start and got the following error (N.B. I changed my username to "myuser" in the text below, but otherwise the error is listed as is):

FVim exited unexpectedly. Exit code: 0 Exception message: An error occurred trying to start process 'nvim' with working directory 'C:\Users\myuser\Downloads\fvim-win-x64-v0.3.548+g2e4087d-2-gee4316c'. The system cannot find the file specified.

Stack trace: at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithCreateProcess(ProcessStartInfo ) at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start() at FVim.neovim.Nvim.createIO(ServerOptions serveropts) in D:\a\1\s\neovim.fs:line 62 at FVim.neovim.Nvim.start(ServerOptions opts) in D:\a\1\s\neovim.fs:line 103 at FVim.model.Start(ServerOptions serveropts, Boolean norc, Boolean remote) in D:\a\1\s\model.fs:line 344 at FVim.Program.startMainWindow(FSharpFunc`2 app, ServerOptions opts_0, Boolean opts_1, Boolean opts_2) in D:\a\1\s\Program.fs:line 34 at FVim.Program.Main(String[] args) in D:\a\1\s\Program.fs:line 141

Which file is missing? Should I expect to see references to the D drive?

Usually, nvim is missing from your %PATH%.
