issue on windows 10 #41

Open msprotz opened 8 years ago

msprotz commented 8 years ago

apparently the installer will not self-escalate to admin privileges on windows 10

msprotz commented 8 years ago

or, more precisely: it won't launch the cygwin setup it just downloaded

Also ran into this problem. What is the easiest workaround? Manually install cygwin and the required packages, which are those? See the If you already have Cygwin64 installed section on https://protz.github.io/ocaml-installer/.

Yes, and also see https://github.com/FStarLang/FStar/blob/master/contrib/CoreCrypto/INSTALL.md for extra packages and more detailed instructions. If you have a patch I'll gladly take it, but I think we're both short on time :)
