Cygwin customizations should normally be in your Cygwin /home/ directory under ~/.directories.../ and in ~/.dotrc... files. Copying those over to the equivalent directory, reviewing, and modifying their settings appropriately if required should keep your new system setup consistent with your old system. If you have made any system wide common customizations under /etc/, you can check changes you may have made to those by running the command below on your old system: $ diff -qr /etc/{defaults/etc/,} | tee ~/etc.log | less which also saves the results summary, showing settings to be copied or compared in the file ~/etc.log in your home directory ~/: * lines in ~/etc.log saying "Only in /etc/...: file..." indicate files that should be copied over from /etc/... on your old system to /etc/... on your new system; * lines in ~/etc.log saying "Files /etc/defaults/etc/file... and /etc/file... differ" should be compared individually using commands like e.g.: $ diff /etc/{defaults/etc/,}file... | tee ~/file....diff | less and a decision made whether to: * keep the customizations by copying the file over from /etc/... on your old system to /etc/... on your new system, * update the customizations by changing the file after copying to your new system, or * restoring its settings to the original defaults by copying over the defaults on your new system using a command like e.g.: $ cp -fpv /etc/{defaults/etc/,}file... -- Take care.
