Setup now also shows coreutils 9.0 in test, and it can and should be installed by anyone who experienced issues with coreutils 9.1. I ran coreutils 9.0 for a couple of weeks in my installs before releasing it for testing, and am still running it now, with no apparent issues. As coreutils is a Base package, in Setup, select View Up To Date, Search for coreutils, New column shows Keep, select the combo box dropdown menu, which shows selections: Uninstall Skip [greyed out] 8.26-2 ✔ Keep [checked] Reinstall 9.0-1 (Test) 9.1-1 (Test) you can select 9.0 which will install the suggested test release when Setup is run. *NO* Cygwin processes can be running when Setup is running, to ensure programs can be replaced without restarting Windows or rerunning Setup.
