Re: Cygwin not able to read C:\windows\system32 on Win7-64. Workaround?

Yep: /Windows/Sysnative

For some reason it doesn't appear when listing the Windows directory,
which is why updatedb wouldn't have seen it, but it really is there.

Cool!

Is that just true for windows/system32? or are there other dirs with
similar 32bit-remappings?

I also just figured out a perverse way to get access to it as
well:

//hostname/C$/windows/system32


The bonuses of win7-64!

:-)

Thanks!
