Thank you for your quick feedback Corinna, it worked.
Here's the result of the grep command:
73 143048 [main] ls 2212 stat_worker: 0 =
(/proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft,0x2004AD88)
67 146386 [main] ls 2212 stat_worker: 0 =
Corinna, the commands you gave seem to show a pb with Windows registry.
So I launched a free Windows registry tool (glary utilities) to search for
errors + defrag Windows registry
I also runned a scandisk on C: and now it works!
Registry keys appear now with Cygwin without needing to launch it

Greetings, julien2412!
Now if I just run an ls /proc/registry/
abbreviated
HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft, I can see the registry keys I quoted only if I
launch Cygwin with admin rights.
Sounds like incorrect installation or something environmental getting in

Anyway, I noticed that with regtool, everything was ok.
Is regtool the recommanded way to access (in read only) registry keys?
And
so we should avoid to run things like this Perl script line:
open($fhandle, /proc/registry/$key

1) Why with no admin rights, ls /proc/registry doesn't map all the keys?
After all, the goal is just to read only
2) Is there a way to have access to any registry keys without admin
rights
and without using regtool?
If you

Hello,
I'm trying to compile LibreOffice on Windows but configuration tool search
some keys on /proc/registry/HKLM which appear only if I launch Cygwin with
Admin rights. (Visual Studio/VCExpress keys).
How to workaround launching Cygwin with admin rights and still access these
registry keys?
Hello,
I runned cppcheck (a static analyzer) on Cygwin sources this week-end.
I thought you could be interested by its report.
Of course there must be some false positives but hope it can help.

Windows won't let programs run by unprivileged users manipulate this
