Since you've already downloaded the packages, you can just remove the installed directory (don't remove setupXXX.exe or mirror copies! Only the directory where you've it installed) and restart setup in "install from local directory" mode. That'd be the fastest way. You'll just have to re-run setup afterward to update installed components from internet. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@yandex.ru) 29.10.2014, <15:10> Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
