A new setup release candidate is available at:
https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.926.x86_64.exe (64 bit version)
https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.926.x86.exe (32 bit version)
Please test, and report any problems here.
Changes compared to 2.925:
- Add some resilience against transient errors when reading files from
the local package cache, as can occasionally happen when it resides on a
network filesystem (thanks to Corinna Vinschen)
- Fix reinstall via command line (thanks to Bill Stewart for helping to
identify this is a regression in 2.919)
Addresses: https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2023-March/253352.html
- Translation updates.
- Add a link to translation website on splash page
- Add a tooltip to the additional site textbox and extend '--site' help
text to indicate that 'site' can also be specified by a path or UNC
path, as well as a URL.

Subject should read "setup 2.926 ...", of course.

Each new file named "setup" is considered "dangerous" these days.

Seems to be working in my testing. Thank you!

Changes compared to 2.924:
- Show a deprecation warning for Windows 6.1 and 6.2
Show a warning if we're running on a Windows version for which support
was deprecated in Cygwin 3.4, i.e:
Windows 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008R2)
Windows 6.2 (Windows 8, Windows Server 2012).
- Ignore attempts to select the reinstall action, if the installed
version is not accessible (e.g. reinstall is run from local directory
but the package is no longer cached) (thanks to Christian Franke)
- Add an '(x86_64)' suffix to start menu folders names when installing
x86_64 Cygwin on some other architecture (e.g ARM64).
- Various fixes around "All Users/"Just For Me" (thanks to Christian
Franke for investigating these problems):
-- Fix a long-standing bug (since 2012), where installed files are owned
by the user's primary group, rather than the Adminstrators group, when
installing for "All Users".
-- We no longer change group back to the user's primary group while
running postinstall scripts, when installing for "All Users". This was
only for the benefit of mkgroup/mkpasswd being run by the postinstall
script, which we don't do any more.
-- Fix "Just For Me" being ignored, when run with Admininstrator privileges
-- Fix "All Users" being selectable but basically ineffectual, when not
run with Admininstrator privileges
- Fix a bug in handling (documented, but as yet unused) 'Source:' lines
in setup.ini.
- Add an experimental zn_CN GUI translation, contributed via weblate by
Xiang Heng Wei
- Various internal fixes to Unicode handling in GUI to support that.
