There's a regtool call in /etc/profile: PRINTER="`regtool -q get '\user\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Window\Device' | sed 's/,.*$//'`" I can reproduce this as follows: - Leave a Cygwin session open. - Run setup.exe - Select reinstall for cygwin-1.7.1-1. - Click next - "in-use files detected" appears - Click retry. Strangely, 'retry' is accepted even without closing all Cygwin processes. But it doesn't seem to make a difference to the outcome anyway: regtool and also mount and ps aren't installed. It can be fixed by reinstalling the cygwin package again, this time without any Cygwin processes running.
