I have disabled DEP and now Cygwin run.
But i have just the pompt with :

None commands are available
When i do a "ls" => command not found.
It's the same for a lot (touch, chmod ...)

But, pwd, cd work

Normally, people start cygwin using cygwin.bat (or an icon on their desktop that does the same). This sets up some useful stuff.


From the picture in your previous post, you just started a shell (bash.exe) inside a command window. In other words, there no guarantee that any useful environment was set up.

The commands that see working are builtin shell commands. Things like ls are not (they are separate executables) and will need a proper path to find.
