A few days ago I have downloaded Cygwin from cygwin.com and installed it
on my computer.
However, since then some other programs did not function properly any
more and it may be that Cygwin is responsible for this.
Therefore I want to uninstall Cygwin.
I read on the pages of cygwin.com, that in order to do this I need to
enter the command "umount" (several times) somewhere and uninstall by
this procedure all mount points which are listed when I enter "mount"
alone (this procedure is correct, or?).
Please read
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.setup.html#faq.setup.uninstall-all
mount points are just registry entries which do no harm to other
programs and are deleted by step 6 of the FAQ entry.
