One more question
I have it running on my main PC but wanted to install on a remote 32bit XPPro SP3 PC that isnt on the net.
I can install Platesolver, but it wants to connect to the net to load CygWin and astrometry.net.
Digging around for these shows there are a myriad different configurations of "build your own", and you have to use an older ver of Cygwin, as the latest doesnt support XP.
Is there a simple standalone exe that can be run to load cygwin and Astrometry.net such that platesolver will be happy on an XP box?????

Andrew

PS I know it can be done as i just used a usb wifi dongle to install it, but would prefer a simple exe for recovery later ( if reqd )
