Per my recent post on this issue, try setting Windows permissions on the
<install drive>:\cygwin\tmp directory to allow Full Control to
Everyone. Not the lightest touch, but it works for my installations.

Hi,
I tried installing Cygwin for all users on my Windows machine but it didn't
work. I am able to start the x window application only when I log in and not
when other users log in to the Windows machine. Can you tell me what is
wrong?
or do I need to make any kind of changes after installing or before? I am
making sure that the "All Users" box is checked before the installation
starts
but it still doesn't work.
Thanks much
