So I manually copied it back and am trying again. This time it fails at "Uninstalling x-start-menu-icons" because seq.exe can't find cygiconv-2.dll. I'm fairly sure I used to have that, so setup must have deleted it as well. This time I'm keeping a full list of everything that's in my /bin directory. Next time anything bombs out I'm going to be able to _prove_ setup deleted it. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
