513/None is in /etc/group. It's the next to last line. The line above

Yes. See /etc/postinstall/000-cygwin-post-install.sh*

I'm not quite sure why your user and its ID ended up in your group file
though. I don't see it in mine and invoking 'mkgroup -l -c' doesn't
enumerate it. For the moment, you can try removing this line and
see if it helps with your problem.


No, no changes at all. I bet that you're not surprised though.
