Re: Cygin GCC errors with multiple users


You most probably selected "Just for me" only.  Try reinstalling and when prompted for those  who could use the program, select "All
users" or "For all" or something like that.

only thing that he could find that was different when using the program is that as the user that installed the program when run it
comes up with the different specs file.  When running as a normal user when it dosnt work, it comes up with Using default specs or
something similar to that.

> Specifications of the install are:
> Windows XP SP1,
> Other C programs installed include: Borland C++, Matlab 6, VB.Net
> Cygwin Installed as Administrator
> Everyone using the PC's are assigned default User account.

> Can someone please shed some light as to why it will only work under the account it has been installed as, and not work under any
other account.
