Subject: Problem with installing Cygwin/X on Windows 10 PC: no icon created
Date: Thu, 02 Aug 2018 08:28:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <AM0PR01MB418083935C0994FFEA13C74CBE2C0@AM0PR01MB4180.eurprd01.prod.exchangelabs.com> (raw)
Dear All,
I have been trying multiple times to install Cygwin/X on my Windows 10 PC using setup-x86_64.exe and as an administrator. Even though the installation was shown to be successful, there was NO Cygwin-X icons such as XLaunch/Xwin Server icons created either on Desktop or Start menu. I have followed the installation instructions precisely and read through many posts about installation of Cygwin/X, but couldn't find any solutions.
To give some more background: I have been installing Cygwin and Cygwin/X many times on different windows PCs and never had such a problem before. On this Windows 10 PC, the Cgywin64 Terminal was installed successfully and is running properly. But Cygwin/X does seem to be installed properly.
Any suggestions will be high appreciated.
Best regards,
