While I have often had Cygwin fork issues after Windows updates and after installing new / updated Cygwin programs, doing a full rebase and a reboot or two usually settles things down. But since I installed Sophos, not so much. Anyone out there have particular experience with Cygwin + Sophos? I've found a little bit of info on web, and apparently there's a Sophos hotfix that has something in it because of Cygwin complaints, but did it help? At present, Sophos is enterprise managed on my computer, which means I can't even personally install the hotfix, but I might convince my organization to help me do it, etc. Just gathered information while I await their response ...
