Installing Cygwin as normal user in nonstandard location?

2024-05-25 Thread Martin Wege via Cygwin
Hello, Can Cygwin be installed as a normal user (without Admin rights) in a nonstandard location, like C.\Users\martinwege\cygwinroot36\...)? Also, can this be done for more than one Cygwin version, e.g. I'd like to test multiple Cygwin versions in parallel. Thanks, Martin -- Problem reports:

LD_PRELOAD for Win32?
