Dear Experts, I had windows2k and cygwin installed on my machine, and I had marked some files as read-only (using cygwin chmod). For some reasons, I had to reinstall windows2k. I also reinstalled cygwin in the same location as it was installed earlier. However the files which were marked read-only earlier are not accessible now. They can't be deleted either. Those are huge files and taking up the space. Any solutions?
