Well, what precisely IS my Cygwin installation? Only the stuff in "C:\ cygwin\"? And how does Cygwin's "setup.exe" know which version of what is already installed? Does it only look in "C:\cygwin\" to determine that? What are the "setup.ini" files under "C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\ cygwin\" used for?
