In any Vim version, the :scriptnames command will tell you the
pathfilenames of all the Vim scripts actually sourced in this instance
of Vim since it started. The vimrc should be at (or very near) the top
of the list, unless either it was not found, or it was disabled by
means of -u NONE on the command-line.

Also, in the middle part of the :version command, the config files
(vimrc etc.) which were defined at compile-time are listed, but they
can be suppressed, or other files can be used instead, by means of
command-line parameters.

Best regards,
Tony.
