I had a similar issue. It seems that some updates do not complete successfully under the circumstances you describe. I suspect there is an issue with shells failing to run successfully as I often have to try several times before I can get Cygwin to open a bash shell successfully. Others require a reboot (and you need to watch the messages for this information).
I find that I get best results if I first run the windows command (from either CMD or bash): net stop sshd and then exit all bash shells and cygwin apps, and then run Cywin setup.exe. I then restart with: net start sshd If you are running other services, like cron, you would have to stop them similarly. -Ken -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
