Subject: Starting CMD from a bash shell with current directory on a mounted/network drive results in an incorrect current directory
Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2021 10:53:41 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <015801d7f00f$b117ed70$1347c850$@dyalog.com> (raw)
Hello All,
I've just upgraded a machine from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Part of my work
process is now broken because when starting cmd from Cygwin with the current
directory on a mounted drive I get the following error/warning/issue:
/cygdrive/j$ cmd
'\\nas00.<redacted>\devt\users\johnd'
CMD.EXE was started with the above path as the current directory.
UNC paths are not supported. Defaulting to Windows directory.
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22000.348]
(c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Windows>
The drive J: is mounted as something on our network (I've redacted a bit of
the path, for probably no good reason)
Is there a workaround? Or is this something that can be fixed in Cygwin?
Thanks
John.
