Does anyone have any ideas how to avoid this issue? Does anyone have an
explanation as to what is going on here? Thanks in advance.

Basic answer is: They're meant to be in that order, ignore windows'
complaints, and don't let it "fix" them for you.


OK, thanks. So, any reason why it would make emacs change the
permissions on existing files?

I can't answer your question, but one solution would be to use Cygwin's
emacs instead of the native windows emacs when working in a Cygwin
environment.

But that is only tty based right? I really need a windowed tool to work with.
