Subject: Recent change to terminal icon / mintty breaks taskbar pinning
From: Brian Mathis <brian DOT mathis AT gmail DOT com>
To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com
X-IsSubscribed: yes

I recently updated to the latest set of cygwin packages, and something
has broken the terminal icon when pinned to the start menu.  When
starting from the Start menu "Cygwin Terminal" icon, mintty comes up
normally, loads my user profile, and the cwd is set to ~.

However, if I right-click the icon on the taskbar and select "Pin to
taskbar", close the existing terminal, then open by clicking on the
pinned taskbar icon, the terminal starts but it does not load the
profile, the cwd is /usr/bin, and no commands can be found (e.g. ls:
command not found).  I have tracked this down to the pinned icon
missing the arguments "-i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -".

I'm sure this worked prior to the update, so something seems to have
changed.  I update fairly often, so this is something recent within
the past month or so.  I'm on Windows 8.1 x64 using Cygwin 32bit.
