Hi, on a new W10 HP Laptop, the 32 bit installation always fails on postinstallation scripts that use perl. The outcome is like: $ ./texlive-collection-formatsextra.sh 1 [main] perl 1796 child_info_fork::abort: address space needed by 'Encode.dll' (0x2620000) is already occupied Can't fork, trying again in 5 seconds at /usr/bin/fmtutil line 73. I did a snapshot dll address using ProcessExplorer, and it it seems that when running perl the relevant dll's are loaded low also when nothing seems on their expected address Encode.dll D:\cygwin32\lib\perl5\5.26\i686-cygwin-threads-64int\auto\Encode\Encode.dll 0x2700000 0x10000 MD5.dll D:\cygwin32\lib\perl5\5.26\i686-cygwin-threads-64int\auto\Digest\MD5\MD5.dll 0x2710000 0xE000 Fcntl.dll D:\cygwin32\lib\perl5\5.26\i686-cygwin-threads-64int\auto\Fcntl\Fcntl.dll 0x2720000 0xD000 IO.dll D:\cygwin32\lib\perl5\5.26\i686-cygwin-threads-64int\auto\IO\IO.dll 0x2730000 0xD000 Util.dll D:\cygwin32\lib\perl5\vendor_perl\5.26\i686-cygwin-threads-64int\auto\List\Util\Util.dll 0x2E40000 0x13000 Glob.dll D:\cygwin32\lib\perl5\5.26\i686-cygwin-threads-64int\auto\File\Glob\Glob.dll 0x2E60000 0xF000 Storable.dll D:\cygwin32\lib\perl5\5.26\i686-cygwin-threads-64int\auto\Storable\Storable.dll 0x2E70000 0x20000 It is not due to an Antivirus as after testing two I tested without any one installed and the outcome is unchanged. The 64bit installation seems fine. Suggestion ? Until I have the 32bit running I can not deploy any new package, as the previous W7 is retired. Regards Marco
