If "ls /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32" is executed, the result is:
ls: cannot access '/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32': No such file or directory

Also, if try to execute "cmd.exe" in System32 directory, the result is:
bash: cmd.exe: command not found.
Of cource, /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32 exists in the PATH.

So I mean "not opening anything at all".
