I am using gvim on Windows10.

I use gvim as a default text editor on my PC.

When I double click and open a .txt file which is in a directory starting with “#”

For example:

C:first/second/#third/text.txt

Then gvim opens up and throws E344. It seems accessing a wrong directory:

C:first/second#third/text.txt

How can I avoid this error without changing the name of the directory?

  • vim is treating / as escape character for #. Use //# in the path Commented Aug 3, 2022 at 13:18
  • This might not be right to ask but how can I set my vim to work like that? I double click the file and my vim seems to automatically follow the path with just single slashes. Commented Aug 6, 2022 at 7:21
