Hello all.

This week I have had to reinstall Windows 2000 (due to a problem unrelated
to Cygwin) and was suprised to find files in my Windows home directory (SSH
stuff) and in my cygwin home still owned by the previous user with the same
name. I cannot delete or modify these files, even logged in as
Administrator. Tried "chown -R" as Administrator, and that still did not
seem to help. Of course, I also checked the regular Windows GUI but even as
Administrator the controls for changing user settings are disabled. I
checked the FAQ and docs, but an easy answer does not seem to present
itself.

Any ideas? Thanks,

--dave
