The only reason I suggested "Cygwin Project\Cygwin" is that it's supposed to be a two level hierarchy, company\product, matching the current "Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin" arrangement. However, after a quick jaunt through HKLM\Software on this machine I see that there are a good number of programs that forego the two level custom and just put keys under HKLM\Software\Foo. So, with that in mind, are there any objections to simply HK{LM,CU}\Software\Cygwin? Brian
