I'm using cygwin for years already. I didn't use to have this problem in the past. It's something relatively new, that became way more intense in the past few months where I both re-installed windows at home, and got a fresh PC at work. On both machines I'm referring to the main user, which is part of the Administrators group. I believe that answers your question. Both machine are Windows 8.1 64-bit, standalone station at home and part of a domain at work. One more thing, here's my CYGWIN env. varv: $ echo $CYGWIN winsymlinks:nativestrict This is the only way to produce windows compliant links (at least in my case).
