Hi!
---- The Cygwin installer "setup-x86_64.exe" has problems updating cygwin1.dll when cygserver is running: ---- snip ---- Unable to extract /usr/bin/cygwin1.dll -- error writing file ---- snip ---- The fix is to do a $ sc stop cygserver # as Administrator, then "setup-x86_64.exe" can write to that file, and after "setup" is done do a $ sc start cygserverr # as Admin again. ... is it possible to modify "setup-x86_64.exe" to stop cygserver before doing the installation process and re-start it after it ? That would make the installer a bit more user-friendly... Versions: ---- snip ---- $ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-10.0-19045 futuramapainmonster4 3.5.0-0.461.g324ace778f70.x86_64 2023-11-14 17:30 UTC x86_64 Cygwin $ ./setup-x86_64 -V Cygwin setup 2.926 ---- snip ---- ---- Bye, Roland i.
