I can tell you that in Windows 10 the search path is the live directory first (.), then the path. But, again, I don't think it's the DLL, because this application does not use the sqlite3.dll or needs it. It's a stand-alone application. It has all it needs inside. For example, if I download the Windows Tool from the Sqlite page, I can place it anywhere in the computer and it will run without anything else. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
