Jan I 've already uninstalled Cygwin and the old version of Lilypond to try to prevent conflict problems. Double clicking to generate PDFs or right clicking and selecting 'open' does the same thing. Is there another way of opening them?
Where's the command line and what's the Lilypond shortcut on the desktop? I'm not computer literate - apologies.
