Re: Certain files in the system32 directory are not listed

Incidentally, would cygwin be able to exec such 64-bit programs?

Cygwin has no problems starting 64-bit programs, that's exactly what our cygwin build environment does when building the 64-bit version of our stuff (using the MSVC8 compiler)...

The only problem that arises is finding programs that are "hidden" by the directory redirection; if the 64-bit program isn't in such a directory, everything is fine.
