I installed cygwin at C:\cygwin and after I decided to move it to D:\cygwin After the moving. The permissions are gone but I got: $ ls -la total 353 d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 22 21:23 . d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 22 21:23 .. ----------+ 1 Penguin None 53342 Jan 21 21:10 Cygwin-Terminal.ico ----------+ 1 Penguin None 57 Jan 21 23:45 Cygwin.bat ----------+ 1 Penguin None 157097 Jan 21 21:10 Cygwin.ico d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 27 01:57 bin dr-xr-xr-x 4 Penguin None 0 Jan 27 02:08 cygdrive d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 21 23:44 dev d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 21 23:49 etc d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 21 23:50 home d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 21 23:49 lib d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 25 01:26 opt dr-xr-xr-x 9 Penguin None 0 Jan 27 02:08 proc drwxrwxr-x+ 1 Penguin root 0 Jan 22 00:07 sbin d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 22 00:30 srv d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 27 02:04 tmp d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 21 23:44 usr d---------+ 1 Penguin None 0 Jan 21 23:44 var I figured that setting back permissions of each file is really annoying and frustrating. And I've installed many packages and it is good if I could not to reinstall cygwin.
