Are there two different versions of Cygwin.bat that Cygwin Setup could create depending on the context in which Cygwin Setup is executed?
If Cygwin setup is being used to create a new installation, the installed Cygwin.bat is fairly path independent: @echo off setlocal enableextensions set TERM= cd /d "%~dp0bin" && .\bash --login -i However, if Cygwin setup is being executed for an already-existing installation and restores a deleted Cygwin.bat, that restored Cygwin.bat contains hard-coded paths: @echo off C: chdir C:\Portable\Cygwin\arch-x86_64\bin bash --login -i For a portable setup, I am intending to remove and wrap Cygwin.bat and have _zero_ issue with Cygwin Setup restoring it (I was actually hoping Cygwin Setup _did_ restore Cygwin.bat so that any updates to Cygwin.bat could be incorporated), but the challenge here is that a completely different Cygwin.bat that contains hard-coded paths is created upon restoration. Is this file content difference expected? Could the `cd /d "%~dp0bin"` syntax be used in both cases (in place of the hardcoded paths)? As reference, the Cygwin Setup --version is 2.934 an the arguments passed to Cygwin Setup are as follows (PortableRoot and ARCH are set by the wrapper batch file that facilitates portability): ` --no-admin --no-shortcuts --no-write-registry --no-replaceonreboot --package-manager --root "%PortableRoot%\Cygwin\arch-%ARCH%" --local-package-dir "%PortableRoot%\Cygwin\packages" --wait` Thank you, Matthew
