Hello
I have deleted all but var and dev from my C:\cygwin folder (which was
quite painful and time-consuming BTW) and then moved the cygwin folder
to my Documents folder and then deleted a Cygwin desktop icon and two
Cygwin folders from my Start > All Programs menu. Is that sufficient to
give me a clean uninstall so that I can do a brand new Cygwin install
without problems? I did it that way because I couldn't figure out any
other way of uninstalling Cygwin.
