I have downloaded the cygwin setup executable. When I run it, as adminstrator or not, I get the following message window:
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022). Click OK to
close the application.

As shown in the Postinstall script errors window.
I am installing on Windows 7, on a 64-bit computer.
Edit 1:
I checked the cygwin folder and it is marked as read-only. This is a sticky bit and won’t change. I’m having my I.T. department investigate this issue.
How can I get rid of these errors?
Resolved. The company has an application SOPHOS which was interfering with the installation of Cygwin.
