Windows 10 did auto-update (Cumulative Update for Windows 10 for
x64-based Systems (KB3093266)) yesterday. My sys auto rebooted this
morning.
Now, when I try to launch "Cygwin Terminal" from the windows desktop I get:
/usr/bin/mintty: could not detach from caller. Try '-help' for more
information.
The actual runstring for the shortcut is:
C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -
Running mintty --version reports: mintty 2.1.5 (i686-pc-cygwin)
I can launch bash from windows cmd shell:
/usr/bin/bash
and I get a bash command prompt. If I try to execute anything (from
inside that bash shell), for example, ls, I get:
Terry@PaceBend /cygdrive/c/Users/Terry/Desktop
may be something changed in the usage or permissions of the
Windows HOME directory,
have you tried to use as your cygwin home a separate directory
from the windows one ?

I checked the cygwin1.dll and it is in the proper place and is dated the
same as the day I updated cygwin for windows 10.
cygcheck file attached.
Pay attention to
https://cygwin.com/problems.html
You should use
cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out
I hope this is the correct list for this issue. I spent a long time
trying to search for a solution and/or if it had already been reported
somewhere, but I didn't find it. Sorry if I duplicated the reporting or
it is in the wrong email list.
