Re: corrupted cygwin startup.

The shortcut usually points to x:\cygwin\cygwin.bat
Look if this batch file is in place.
also it should be possible to run bash without a batch file, my shortcut
looks like this:
Target     :  H:\bin\bash.exe --login -i
Workingdir :  H:\
And I use a second which calls rxvt:
(All one line for the target):
H:\bin\rxvt.exe -geometry 90x30 -bg midnightblue -fg grey -cr red -sr \
                -sl 2000 -fn "Lucida Console-14" -tn rxvt -ls \
                -e /usr/bin/bash --login -i
Workingdir: H:\bin
