No, you just need to follow the procedure as described in: > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Did you redirect the output, as in: cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out If yes, the output should be in the current directory. If you can't find the file, try (from a Cygwin prompt) cygcheck -s -v -r > `cygpath -D`/cygcheck.out That would put the output on the desktop. The warnings about OpenService are harmless.
