Happily I had cygwin installed on a different partition, so I had no need to reinstall all of if (I like to have the full distribution). However the Desktop/Start Menu icons for cygwin where not there anymore. Running the installer did restore the cygwin icons on my Desktop, but there where no Cygwin/X icons on either the desktop or the start menu. I tried to explicitly re-install, with setup.exe, the xwin-icons package (in the X11 group), and still I only got icons for all X11 applications, but not for starting the X server ! Eventually I had to copy the icon from another computer to my start menu ... Can the Cygwin setup program restore all icons (including X server and apps icons) if they are missing ? Can the xwin-icons package in X11 group also create the X server icon when re-installed ?
