I think so. > I haven't used a snapshot before. Is there a tutorial on how to get > onto and off of a snapshot? Or should I test by using a VM? Just download the cygwin DLL matching your architecture (x86/x86_64), that is http://cygwin.com/snapshots/x86/cygwin1-20150430.dll.xz or http://cygwin.com/snapshots/x86_64/cygwin1-20150430.dll.xz Unxz it, chmod +x it. Exit all Cygwin processes (even services), move the original cygwin1.dll to a safe place. Copy the snapshot DLL into its place, renaming it to cygwin1.dll. Start a shell. Test. Exit the shell. Remove the new DLL and move the original DLL back into its place. That's it. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
