All of a sudden, I find that run.exe is no longer able to launch startx. For example, I had been using for several months a desktop shortcut that calls the following target:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /bin/tcsh -c /usr/X11R6/bin/startx (did that get split to 2 lines? should be one) This shortcut worked like a charm for many months. Then, all of a sudden last week, it stopped working. Symptom is that NOTHING occurs - not even an error message. No new processes appear in windows Task Manager either. startx has not been modified, nor any associated start files (.Xinitrc, etc.) I installed only one new app (snoopfree privacy shield), however I subsequently uninstalled it (and rebooted), yet the problem persists. Furthermore, I have a 2nd PC upon which I installed this same app and my window manager is still able to be launched. Any suggestions appreciated.
