There is no reason to apologize. Cygwin should not be creating files that
cygwin cannot easily delete. Your question was entirely appropriate.
Hello,
try this way :
cd my_folder
find ./ -name "nul" -exec rm {} /;

Dear Michael Pfeiffer,
This problem is not cygwin related. You can delete files like this by
using "UNC" style of filename (this style prevents use of DOS devices
and bypasses Windows 256 character limit for filename). For example, to
delete file from the root of d:\ drive use
del \\.\d:\n
Please search the list archives before asking for something:

(it's a message of 3 days ago).
Ciao,
Danilo

The problem is that this file can not be deleted.
I was not able to delete it using the "rm" command in
bash, or "del" in a windows command lin
