The home dire= ctory of my user was not created, when you run Cygwin for the first time. W= hen I start Cygwin it defaults to the evil C:\Windows\System32!?!? -bash-4.4$ pwd /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/System32 -bash-4.4$ cd -bash: cd: /home/kavalpa: No such file or directory -bash-4.4$ How this can be fixed in proper way, without causing any permission issues.
