Yes, that makes quite a difference!

This issue was fixed in 7.3.061. You should upgrade your Vim.

I'm not certain what gVim Portable changes about the distribution, but Vim should be able to run from anywhere if you don't try to register a shell extension. Maybe it's the OLE registration stuff that they remove.

You can either compile your own Vim, or get the "Vim without Cream" build to get a more up-to-date version on Windows.
