Is there something I can do (file permissions, possibly) to prevent this from happening, other than changing the system-wide default for the User Account Control prompt/dialog? This behavior doesn't occur when using the Cygwin 1.5 rxvt.exe application. Here are the command line arguments I use to start rxvt (in 1.5 && 1.7.1 of cygwin) C:\cygwin171\bin\rxvt.exe -sl 9999 -geometry 90x45 +vb -fg black -bg ivory -fn "Courier" -e /usr/bin/bash --login -- David Means -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
