Hello,

It seems that very recently (immediately after i installed 3.3.5),
/cygdrive/c/windows/regedit /E 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment'
no longer works (i.e. should dump the environment on stdout), and produces a pop-up window with:

Cannot export HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment: Error opening the file. There may be a disk or file system error.

% uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-10.0 jupiter 3.3.5(0.341/5/3) 2022-05-13 12:27 x86_64 Cygwin


Thank you for your help.

Denis Excoffier.
