Try my installer (Vim without Cream), it works on my Win8.1: 

http://sourceforge.net/projects/cream/files/latest/download

Freshly updated to 7.4.179. (Sorry, all, for the delays. I found an HG

Thanks!  That works!

Now, what happened, or why does yours work, and the others do not?  I can't be the only one to (will) have this issue, can I?

I'm happy (and productive) now -- thank you very much.
