Question: I want to install a vim plugin, this plugin needs a `+python` feature, so when I open vim and type `:version` it displays `-python`. How can I make it enable?. 

Thanks.

Answer: 
For Windows you can always grab the very latest patched version of Vim 8.x compiled against the latest external libraries here: [Vim downloads](https://tuxproject.de/projects/vim/x64/)

At the time of posting the most current versions:

Latest compiled update: 2017-02-23

Vim version: 8.0.0363 [Official patch log](ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/patches/8.0/README)

Libraries used: Perl 5.24.1, Python 2.7.12, Python 3.6.0, Racket 6.7, Ruby 2.4.0, Lua 5.3.3, Tcl 8.6.4, and libXpm
Since this could be misinterpreted with enable the python3 feature, I consider useful mention this link for an installation according to your needs

**Here are excellent guides for: [\*nix & windows](https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/wiki).**

*Note*: Pay attention to every character in the ./configure instruction and read carefully (as if you'll screw up) before doing it. And read until the end, there is no way to get lost

You should probably add this to ./configure:

```
--enable-fail-if-missing

```

Avoid to enable both python 2 & 3

**Take your time** This is a very very well explained procedure. Thank to Valloric
