Guide to keeping the VIM temp and backup files in static directories, and not in the same folders as the files being worked on.
1. Create the folders for Swap, Backup, and Undo inside a VIM folder. My setup is below, i created 4 folders.
C:\Users\NAME\Documents\.vim_temp
C:\Users\NAME\Documents\.vim_temp\.backup
C:\Users\NAME\Documents\.vim_temp\.swp
C:\Users\NAME\Documents\.vim_temp\.undo
2. Locate the _vimrc file (often in C:\Program Files (x86)\vim\) and add the folllowing lines to the document at the bottom.
set undodir=C:\Users\NAME\Documents\.vim_temp\.undo\\
set backupdir=C:\Users\NAME\Documents\.vim_temp\.backup\\
set directory=C:\Users\NAME\Documents\.vim_temp\.swp\\
3. After you have saved the changes over start VIM and all thouse extra files are "hidden away"
