How did you make sure of that? The output of "where bash" might
surprise you. On this box, e.g., I have:
C:\Users\hbbro>where bash
C:\Windows\System32\bash.exe
C:\Users\hbbro>bash
hbbro@NB5:/mnt/c/Users/hbbro$ uname -a
Linux NB5 4.4.0-18362-Microsoft #476-Microsoft Fri Nov 01 16:53:00 PST
2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux
But let's assume I did actually start Cygwin bash.
> 3. From there, run "mintty"
C:\Users\hbbro>\cygwin64\bin\bash
hbbro@NB5 /cygdrive/c/Users/hbbro
$ mintty
bash: mintty: command not found
So running "mintty" doesn't actually work at all. But let's assume I
start Mintty in a way that actually works in this context:
hbbro@NB5 /cygdrive/c/Users/hbbro
$ /usr/bin/mintty
Works just fine. Mintty starts up, all is fine.
