I've been using gvim for windows 10 installed from gvim_8.1.0451_x86.exe
since that came out. That was the first version that fixed the bug in
vim (non-gui mode) in which <F11> and <F12> were not recognized.
That has worked fine for me.
At Bram's request, I installed gvim_8.1.2410_x64.exe and _x86.exe. Both
versions of vim (non-gui) are not compatible with Take Command console
program by JPSoft.com. I have been using some version of take command
for 25+ years.
There is an incompatibility w/ take command and the latest windows
version of non-gui vim.
The display is unstable, jumping more often than 2 per second (I
think). The prompt line appears midway in the screen. I am able to
blindly issue :q and it quits.
I reverted to the version that works for me, ie, 8.1.0451_x86.
Thought you'd want to know.
FWIW, I also reported this to Rexx Conn of JPSoft.com, who is the
principal programmer and owner (I think).

As a tryout for the upcoming Vim 8.2 release I created an MS-Windows
self-installing binary from the current Vim version. This should be
very close to the Vim 8.2 release. Give it a try.
This uses the new Windows installer, which is nicer than the old one.
It also has translations for a few languages.
You can download it from here:
https://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/vim/pc/gvim81.exe
You can find the individual zip archives with runtime files and three
versions of the executable in the same directory. See the README file
for what is in which archive:
https://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/vim/pc/README
Let me know if you run into any trouble, we want to make sure the Vim
8.2 release doesn't have any problems.
