But on my Cygwin 4.7 installation C: defaults to posix=1 posix=0 is default for /cygwin/c: $ mount C:/cygwin64/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin64/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin64 on / type ntfs (binary,auto) C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) Why? Where do I change the default?
