Thanks, but I'm still on Windows 7, so this has no effect.

Hello,

I've been using cygwin for years with no problems.  I just updated
cygwin again and I suddenly can't get into the terminal. When I click
the cygwin icon, the window just flashes and immediately closes.

What's interesting is that I have a number of cygwin/mintty shortcuts
for SSH servers as `c:\path\to\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe /bin/ssh
u...@server.com`, which work just fine. I can also get in if I run
`cygwin.bat` in `cmd`, `console2` or any other Windows command terminal.

I've tried running the latest cygwin setup, reinstalling `mintty`, and
the shortcut still fails. The shortcut is just the default target:
`C:\path\to\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe /bin/bash --login -i`

I don't know what else to try.  What happened here and how do I fix this?
Does anything change if the registry value ForceV2 is set to 0 under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Console? This disables the pseudo console feature.

Note: Do not forget to revert the registry value.
