issues with Neovim, in specific with the init.nvim file

I spent some hours customizing neovim but now when I edit the init.nvim file it doesn't recognize the set command and there is no syntax highlighting. Can somebody help me? nvim --version: v0.3.4.

When I run :checkhealth the output is:

health#nvim#check

I don't have python2 installed and my python3 version is 3.9.2 (but it works and there is synatx highlighting). I saved my init.nvim file as .config/nvim/init.nvim in the directories .config and then nvim. Is there also a way to reset neovim?

The nvim config file is named init.vim. It should be put under the directory $HOME/.config/nvim.

Are you sure that you have put init.vim under $HOME/.config/nvim/, because checkhealth says otherwise
