Does Cygwin only run Windows executables? When I run a ELF program inside Cygwin running in Windows 10, it says that
$ ./wkhtmltopdf -bash: ./wkhtmltopdf: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error $ file wkhtmltopdf wkhtmltopdf: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, BuildID[sha1]=b6566a9e44c43a0eebf18d8c1dc6cb616801a77e, stripped
Does Cygwin provide implementations of those common linux utilities as Windows executables with the same basename but adding
.exe
as extension name?Can Cygwin run any native Windows executables, or most of them?
Thanks.
