Dear Marco, Thank you very much for the suggestions.
Concerning your questions: 1. What system and AV do you have ? System type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor (Intel(r) Core(tm) i7-6700CPU @3.40GHz) Operating system: Windows 10 Enterprise AV: Sophos Anti-Virus; Windows firewall 2. Can you follow https://cygwin.com/problems.html and provide as attachment the cygcheck.out ? The cygcheck.out file is 891KB in size, so when being attached as a plain-text attachment, the email was rejected. Would it be possible to send this output file to a different email address or in two separate files? There is no "/var/log/xwin/XWin.0.log" file in the related directory. 3. What is the output of rebase -si | grep cygiconv-2.dll $ rebase -si | grep cygiconv-2.dll /usr/bin/cygiconv-2.dll base 0x0003e3ca0000 size 0x00105000 4. and of grep System32 /proc/self/maps | head -n 5 $ grep System32 /proc/self/maps | head -n 5 02610000-026D5000 r--s 00000000 5AE2:1602 281474976813647 /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/locale.nls 7FF928280000-7FF928281000 r--p 00000000 5AE2:1602 281474976813532 /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/authz.dll 7FF928281000-7FF9282AB000 r-xp 00001000 5AE2:1602 281474976813532 /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/authz.dll 7FF9282AB000-7FF9282C4000 r--p 0002B000 5AE2:1602 281474976813532 /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/authz.dll 7FF9282C4000-7FF9282C5000 rw-p 00044000 5AE2:1602 281474976813532 /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/authz.dll Many thanks, Zuowei From: Zuowei Wang Sent: 02 August 2018 11:10 To: cygwin@cygwin.com<mailto:cygwin@cygwin.com> Subject: RE: Problem with installing Cygwin/X on Windows 10 PC: no icon created Sorry to both again.

I have run the command line as you suggested and got the output of xinit-1.3.4-14, but nothing else happened. Is there anything else I need to do, say reboot the PC? Many thanks, Zuowei the Cygwin-X entries in the Menu are created by the script: /etc/postinstall/xinit.sh{.done} It belongs to the package $ cygcheck -f /etc/postinstall/xinit.sh xinit-1.3.4-14 You can run it again by the cygwin terminal. From: Zuowei Wang Sent: 02 August 2018 09:28 To: 'cygwin@cygwin.com' Subject: Problem with installing Cygwin/X on Windows 10 PC: no icon created Dear All, I have been trying multiple times to install Cygwin/X on my Windows 10 PC using setup-x86_64.exe and as an administrator. Even though the installation was shown to be successful, there was NO Cygwin-X icons such as XLaunch/Xwin Server icons created either on Desktop or Start menu. I have followed the installation instructions precisely and read through many posts about installation of Cygwin/X, but couldn't find any solutions. To give some more background: I have been installing Cygwin and Cygwin/X many times on different windows PCs and never had such a problem before. On this Windows 10 PC, the Cgywin64 Terminal was installed successfully and is running properly. But Cygwin/X does seem to be installed properly. Any suggestions will be high appreciated.
