I cannot figure out what I did, but and have always moved the cursor forward or back. Somehow now opens the "Find in Files" dialog and I cannot disable it. Had to switch back to 7.

Any ideas?

Are you by any chance loading mswin.vim? It has been recently changed to include a map for Ctrl-F to open the search dialog

Yes. I just updated to vim 8 and do load that. I figured it was something silly but also that I'm not the only one to have this problem. Thanks for the quick response.

In that case, simple :nunmap <c-f> , iunmap <c-f> and cunmap <c-f> and possibly also for <c-h>

Yep, updating the mswin.vim fixed it

Although probably just unmapping them in my .vimrc would be the better option for the next upgrade.
