Cygwin is a software that allows us to run Linux commands and applications on Windows operating systems. It enables us to use many Linux tools and commands such as ls, vim, joe, ftp, gcc, etc. The installation process is straightforward but requires administrator privileges. We can select the download mirror location near our location that contains necessary packages organized into categories. Cygwin automatically detects package dependencies and allows us to select them during installation. Once installed, we will see a Linux shell style from which we can access the file system using Linux commands. Additionally, there are exclusive Cygwin ports through which we can install different software in this environment without any restricted territory or limitation. Hence with Cygwin installed one can have access to a Linux environment without owning it separately or acquiring permissions for usage since this is free of cost program with no restrictions applied.
