I just downloaded cygwin
_base
_subversion
_Perl
_openssh
_tnftp
...on a new Dell desktop with Windows 10 Enterprise installed last
week and I am getting this error from many commands:.
E:\sandbox\sc>which bin
0 [main] which 4660 find_fast_cwd: WARNING: Couldn't compute
FAST_CWD pointer. Please report this problem to
the public mailing list cygwin@cygwin.com
I rooted around on the internet and found this:
"Ok, I think you found the source of the problem. Indeed, another
cygwin1.dll (version 1.7.17) gets included as a dependency of tail.exe
in the all-in-one package and must have overwrite the one included
with Dynamips (version 1.7.28)."
I did find other threads on the web discussing this, but most were
older and referred to Windows 8.x.
Also tried reinstalling just the default cygwin package and the
problem persisted.
I then searched for cygwin1.dll on the internet, but cold not figure
out how to update just cygwin1.dll. I did not attempt to use a pay
website to correct this problem.

Is there a way to tell what version of the dll I have?
Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
