YES!!!!!!! A *BIG* thank you to your Swedish co-worker, and to you for
telling here!

This solved the problem for me as well.

I have a Dell as well, my is almost three years old. That dll was on
the AppInit tab and it was used by docmgr.exe that can be found as
"Document Manager" on the Logon tab. I disabled them both and made a
backup of my cygwin15 installation (including the mount keys in the
registry).

After all of this I restarted my Windows, run the setup and upgraded
to 1.7 without any problem.

Once again a big thank you!

Maybe it is an idea to put this on the BLODA list?

Regards,
Frank
