Thorsten, don't use Microsoft Windows style of pathnames! Use POSIX compliant pathnames.
E.g. Do the following $ cd /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files or alternatively try $ cd "`cygpath -u "C:\Program Files"`" Note the backslash is to escape the space in the pathname in the 1st case, quotes in the 2nd case.
