Re: Unable to use Mintty - Fresh Install

Warning: cygwin1.dll not found on your path

this is curious

It’s happening because he’s not running cygcheck under Cygwin, since Cygwin won’t start on his system.  Hence, c:\cygwin\bin isn’t in the path.

This is also why it skips all the package checks, and why it complains about things like awk not found.


You don't need mintty to "run cygwin". Open a cmd prompt and do C:\Cygwin\bin\bash -i --login (Or wherever you installed Cygwin).
