Hello, Putting the following command line in a Windows shortcut opens a login bash in the /home/User_name directory (~):
C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -e bash --login Now I would like to do the same in the /home/User_name/foobar directory. I tried: C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -e bash --login -c "cd foobar" with the result that the Mintty window vanishes. I also tried to add C:\cygwin\home\User_name\foobar in the "Start in" box of the windows shortcut. With no effect. Thank you for your help.
