Mintty.exe: Process has exited, so the requested information is not available

Mintty, Cygwin and SuperPutty issue

Mintty.exe: Process has exited, so the requested information is not available.

I also had this issue, but was able to do some troubleshooting this evening. The issue is caused by the current version of mintty.exe distributed with cygwin. In the new version, if mintty thinks that it wasn't started from a terminal, it will fork itself and then exit. Since superputty doesn't notice this, it tries to wait on the initial mintty process, which has already exited.
Fortunately, there is a mintty config setting to disable this behavior. Just add "daemonize=false" to the .minttyrc file in your cygwin home dir.
