I start X11 by double clicking the following config.xlaunch:

After the reboot caused by a windows 10 upgrade, launching X11 using
xlaunch have stopped working.

Is the problem that I'm using xlaunch?  From the version number it looks
like it is from 2016?  Has the world change enough that it now longer
works for launching x?

What does people use to launch cygwin X these days?

Sorry to hear you are having problems. [1] lists the ways of starting the X server we think should work [2].

The simplest way to run the X server is using 'XWin' at a command line.

Does that work? I'm guessing probably not. Does it hang? Or exit after doing nothing? Does 'XWin -logverbose 3' produce any more information?
