@aldostools , I bought a new laptop and I can't get PKG Content ID to work correctly
I tried changing the cygwin dlls for newer ones, if I do this the log area is blank and it doesn't work,

if I download the dll from google it works but after compiling sprx the system gets a KP, the same happens when I try to compile with the error.

I just formatted my PC and same thing, do you have any idea how I can solve it?

I do not use Windows 11, but here is a solution found in stackoverflow after a quick search in google:
How do I fix find_fast_cwd warnings?

Older Cygwin releases asked users to report problems to the mailing list with the message:

find_fast_cwd: WARNING: Couldn't compute FAST_CWD pointer. Please report
this problem to the public mailing list [email protected]
Recent Cygwin releases changed this to the message:

This typically occurs if you're using an older Cygwin version on a newer Windows.
Please update to the latest available Cygwin version from https://cygwin.com/.
If the problem persists, please see https://cygwin.com/problems.html.
This is not serious, just a warning that Cygwin may not always be able to exactly emulate all aspects of Unix current directory handling under your Windows release.

Unfortunately some projects and products still distribute older Cygwin releases which may not fully support newer Windows releases, instead of installing the current release from the Cygwin project. They also may not provide any obvious way to keep the Cygwin packages their application uses up to date with fixes for security issues and upgrades.

The solution is simply downloading and running the Cygwin Setup program, following the instructions in the Internet Setup section of ``Setting Up Cygwin'' in the Cygwin User's Guide.

Please exit from all applications before running the Cygwin Setup program. When running Setup, you should not change most of the values presented, just select the Next button in most cases, as you already have a Cygwin release installed, and only want to upgrade your current installation. You should make your own selection if the internet connection to your system requires a proxy; and you must always pick an up to date Cygwin download (mirror) site, preferably the site nearest to your system for faster downloads, as shown, with more details to help you choose, on the Mirror Sites web page.

The Cygwin Setup program will download and apply upgrades to all packages required for Cygwin itself and installed applications. Any problems with applying updates, or the application after updates, should be reported to the project or product supplier for remedial action.

As Cygwin is a volunteer project, unable to provide support for older releases installed by projects or products, it would be helpful to let other users know what project or product you installed, in a quick email

@aldostools i just found the issue, looking at the reported keyset 4.20~4.55 ringed me a bell that something was wrong, so i realized that my version is 2.17 not the latest one.

I grabbed one from my backup files and it's working now, BTW the 2.17 is the one from Brewlogy, so it's outdated by several years
 
have you tried compiling scetool without cygwin to make a build that doesn't have that problem ?

No, I dont want to use raw scetool because I need to edit sprx a lot and it takes a lot of time to use command lines, so I was trying to get PS3tools to work.

i wasn't sugesting using a command line version of scetool, i meant to just compile scetool and replace the one used in ps3tools with one that doesn't require cygwin, but since you got it working anyway i guess it no longer matters, congrats on fixing the problem.

I wonder what program version is LuanTeles referring to and where did he update it to solve the problem. I am trying to use PS3Tools to auto resign all the .SPRX from a game update but this warning is showing off:

Well, I was using PS3 Tools v4.8.1 downloaded from here, and somehow it got corrupted by another program (?)

Anyway, I reinstalled it and the problem was solved. Not sure why, but hey, problem solved. lol
