Vim will always source the .vimrc (or _vimrc) that is in your HOME directory. Apparently you either have an environment variable HOME set, or you placed your .vimrc in the same place that Windows looks for HOME. You can determine the setting of HOME by doing ":echo $HOME" from within Vim. > and how can I fix that? > As Gary suggests, make sure your .vimrc works on both Windows and cygwin, possibly by sourcing the Windows-only vimrc or a Cygwin-only vimrc depending on platform. I find it nicer to use the SAME configuration for both platforms, and just separate out stuff that shouldn't be common within the vimrc itself.
