Windows path in README wrong? #314

Description

@ckaag

Describe the bug

%userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim-data\ does not seem to be the correct path for neovim configs under windows (it's used for data as the name implies). The path should be %userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\ (corresponding to ~/.config/nvim on Unix).

It would also probably help to add in a line that a C compiler is required for the plugins to run (e.g. scoop install gcc). But that's pretty self-explainable by error messages alone.

To Reproduce

  1. install neovim on Windows (I was using scoop)
  2. use the nvim-data path
  3. nvim will not load the init.lua

Desktop

  • OS: Windows 10

Neovim Version

v0.9.0
