I will try adding SYSTEM to the BackupOperators group, which presumably has SeBackupPrivilege (and SeRestorePrivilege).

Failing that, registry tweaks, which should be set up by your backup package installer. Review https://support.crashplan.com/Troubleshooting/Unable_To_Back_Up_Files_WindowsThank you, Brian - I was aware of that page. It says that the SYSTEM user needs access to the files. I have normally set up so that my cygwin tree is granted SYSTEM read access all the way down. /usr/share/locale does not seem to obey that, which I will inspect more deeply. Meanwhile, I am still seeing if adding SYSTEM to BackupOperators is helpful ...
The answer to the latter question is no, so, I applied these changes to my /usr hierarchy (32 and 64 bit): Directories: setfacl -m group:SYSTEM:r-x setfacl -m default:group:SYSTEM:r-x chgrp Cygwin chmod g+s Files: setfacl -m group:SYSTEM:r-x chgrp Cygwin The chgrp and chmod are not the more necessary parts, but they tend to help Cygwin tools run ore smoothly. (Cygwin is the name of a group I set up for Cygwin things; of course I am a member of that group.) The setfacl SYSTEM settings are what is crucial for CrashPlan. Meanwhile, I still claim that 600 mode for .mo files is strange :-) ...
