Thanks for responding. But I must I'm still puzzled. If I delete Cygwin B20 and its directory structure, what in the downloading of the various utilities builds a new structure and imposes a new installation? Another way of putting this question: What does the work formerly done by "full.exe" or "usertools.exe"?
