Robert Terzi commented on JBDS-3862:
------------------------------------
I'm pretty sure a default installation of Cygwin doesn't alter the Windows path.
It's optional because they get a shortcut to launch MinTTY with bash inside which runs
the the created profile. So No. 1 would be unreliable.
Not sure about No. 2 - At least on my Windows 7 system, I don't get an uninstall entry
in Add/Remove Programs for Cygwin.
As for No. 3. the default location for Cygwin is C:\Cygwin. (or probably
%SystemDrive%\Cygwin
To me No.3 / prompting to install cygwin or provide path if it isn't C:\cygwin seems
best.
