.bashrc in Cygwin 1.7
cygwin
Solution
Start a shell instance and run the command `echo $HOME` to see what your home path is set to. That's where all your user config files will be read from. It might not be one of the paths you tried.
Once you know where it is, just copy the template `.bash_profile` and `.bashrc` files from the `/etc/skel` folder to get you started.
If you don't like the path that's currently being used as your home, you can change it by editing `/etc/passwd`. Here's more info on that... Safely change home directory
Problem
I'm running Cygwin 1.7.17 on Windows Server 2012. My user account is "Administrator". Where should I put a .bashrc file for the Cygwin bash to pick it up? I've tried the "c:\users\Administrator" folder, which seems to be the HOME in Cygwin 1.7. Tryed c:\cygwin\home\Administrator also.
