I'm using MSYS (MinGW UNIX environment) to get a working UNIX-like environment on my Windows 7 workstation. When I start the MinGW shell, I can see that my home directory is /home/oded.a
, and running mount
shows me that it comes from msys\1.0
under the MinGW installation directory.
It works fine and I can put files there, write and read them using the MSYS environment utilities and shells, but when I open the Windows 7 file explorer and browse to msys\1.0
, I can't see a directory named home
and I would really like to be able to access my MSYS home files using Windows tools. Any idea where the home directory is actually stored?
This is the output of mount
on my system:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MinGW\msys\1.0 on /usr type user (binmode,noumount)
C:\Program Files (x86)\MinGW\msys\1.0 on / type user (binmode,noumount)
C:\Users\oded.a\AppData\Local\Temp on /tmp type user (binmode,noumount)
c: on /c type user (binmode,noumount)
q: on /q type user (binmode,noumount)
Oh,
-W
option forpwd
? Nice. This revealed that my MINGW home is the same as my Windows User home, but the keygen still have not placed the SSH keys inside.ssh
directory, it was just laying in the home root. – Csaba Toth – 2019-01-28T20:43:04.333Thanks. I no longer have this setup, but this is indeed what I was looking for. – Guss – 2012-05-28T17:01:40.747
