Adding to what other people said, most self-respecting antivirus applications
explicitly block access to system hosts file.
For obvious reasons.
If you absolutely NEED to modify it, and can't resolve your issues in any
other way, disable hosts file
Greetings, Frank Fesevur!
On my Win81 machine I tried to edit /etc/hosts with vim. When I try to
write the file I get this error:
/etc/hosts E166: Can't open linked file for writing
Since /etc/hosts is a symlink to
/cygdrive/c/windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts so I tried to edit the
file

Why can't vim write the file, or even better the symlinked file? I'm
quite sure editing the symlink works in Win7, but can try tomorrow.

Hi,
On my Win81 machine I tried to edit /etc/hosts with vim. When I try to
write the file I get this error:
/etc/hosts E166: Can't open linked file for writing
Since /etc/hosts is a symlink to
/cygdrive/c/windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts so I tried to edit the
file with the full path but that
