io_stream_cygfile: fopen(/etc/setup/setup.rc) failed

[Arpitha M]

Hi,

Please see my below response:

What OS version are you using ?
Windows 8.1 pro (64 bit)

Have you an Antivirus installed ? Which one ? Anything in its log ?
I have disabled my antivirus during installation.

In which directory are you trying to setup Cygwin ?
D drive as it has more space available.

Have you tried to setup a 64bit Cygwin ?
No I have not.

Regards,
Arpitha M
