I use gVim on windows and save my current working files to session. However, when openning old session, it did not load files from other folder except home folder ~ (where I store my _vimrc file). My _vimrc setting is as below:

autocmd! VimLeave * mks! 
autocmd! VimEnter * if argc() == 0 | source ~/Session.vim | endif

File ~/test.txt was loaded but file C:\Users\VPG1HC\Desktop\project notes\test.txt was not loaded (it's empty). All the files are in current session. When I checked buffer, it's there but the content was empty. I opened with notepadd++ or reopened the file with Vim, then the content was loaded.

  • Don't you want to try vim-ctrlspace plugin? – eyal karni Sep 28 '20 at 17:56

    OP, Welcome to Vi and Vim! If you can edit to add more details, such as those asked of you in the comments, that will help get your question answered (I hope)! – D. Ben Knoble♦ Sep 28 '20 at 18:26

    @eyalkarni this question is about (windows) gvim, and not neovim. So mentioning the 'shada' option is just confusing. – Christian Brabandt Sep 29 '20 at 5:50
