Greetings, Houder!

Apparently MinTTY requires this DLL.
Q: Should my system (Windows 7) have this DLL? (Is it present
on your system?)
Yes. It is located in WinSxS, as many other versioned DLL's.
I.e. on my system, MinTTY loading
C:\Windows\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft.windows.gdiplus_6595b64144ccf1df_1.1.7601.24280_none_145e10148b8de48e\gdiplus.dll
Thanks for the feedback, Andrey!
Yes, I have that file too. The output of 'ls -l' shows:
64-@@# ls -l /drv/c/Windows/\
WinSxS/\
amd64_microsoft.windows.gdiplus_6595b64144ccf1df_1.1.7601.24280_none_145e10148b8de48e/\

gdiplus.dll
(yes, I broke each line up in multiple ones for readability)
The first "1" on the line that is output bij "ls", indicates it is not
"hard
linked" to a version in c:/Windows/system32.
Michael Wild reported a version of GdiPlus.dll in c:/Windows/system32 on
his
system. So, I expect "his" system shows a "2" here ...

Henri

Btw, I do not think that the "loss of GdiPlus.dll" on my system explains
why
I cannot start MinTTY with Corinna's latest cygwin1.dll ...
I believe something else is preventing the launch of MinTTY using the
latest
cygwin1.dll ...
