Why ask when you can just try both scenarios pretty easily?
> Simple example for possible issues (might be more): > Cygwin seems to modify the global REGISTRY with a "Install for > everyone" (as Admin). What will happen then? Why would you try to "install for everyone" if you don't have an admin rights? > Can Cygwin installations installed as non-admin interact via Windows > REGISTRY, or other unexpected ways? That's pretty strange question. > So testing by a non-expert like me might not uncover > such things immediately, so I better ask the experts here What do you ACTUALLY want to do? -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Sunday, May 26, 2024 20:25:48 Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
