Hello Andrey, thank you very much for your answer! > Why not start it directly, then? [...] Do it! What do you mean by "start directly" and "Do it"?: - Do you mean that I should start the X Server manually every time I boot Windows? That certainly would work, but that's not a solution for me. I want the X Server to start automatically on Windows login. - Or do you mean that I should register XWin as Windows service? I looked through the Cygwin manual, but I didn't find a solution how to register XWin as Windows service. I also tried out; but these tree attempts don't work: sc create testabc binpath= "D:\Programme\Alias\startx.bat" displayname= "testabc" start= demand sc create testabc1 binpath= "D:\Programme\cygwin\bin\startxwin.exe -- /bin/XWin -clipboard -emulate3buttons 100 -nounixkill -nowinkill -xkboptions nbsp:level3" displayname= "testabc1" start= demand sc create testabc2 binpath= "D:\Programme\cygwin\bin\XWin.exe -clipboard -emulate3buttons 100 -nounixkill -nowinkill -xkboptions nbsp:level3" displayname= "testabc2" start= demand They all come with the same error message on startup: sc start testabc2 [SC] StartService FEHLER 1053: Der Dienst antwortete nicht rechtzeitig auf die Start- oder Steuerungsanforderung.
