Re: Cygwin and Msys


Quoting Ali Irfan Ustek <aliustek@gmail.com>:

Hi all,

I installed Msys to test MingW and uninstalled them both.  However now
my HOME path is set to /cygdrive/c/msys/1.0/home and I can't get my
home directory back.


No idea as to why this has happened. But please have a look at /etc/profile. This file lists the various ways, and their order of precedence, of how HOME is set. Installing Msys or MingW may have altered one of the relevant settings.


regards,
Markus
