I have seen this mention of cygwin1.dll being in the windows\system32
directory several times during cygwin upgrades and installations.
However each time the dialog comes up and I choose to delete it, it
says it can't. And whenever (including now) I manually check the
system32 directory, both from the command line and with Windows
Explorer, I don't see the cygwin1.dll file in there. I'm not sure why
it's saying it's in there when it's clearly not.
However, Warren's mention of Sonic might be of use. I do have a Sonic
product installed, so I'm going to try and get rid of it and try
again. There are a few local copies of cygwin1.dll on my system. (one
for a pdfmerge program I use for instance). Will deleting those local
copies render the programs non-functional?
Thanks for the suggestions.
