Terminus: Can't issue bash commands on Cygwin

[jorgesouzadxc]

I can't issue bash commands like "ls" on cygwin. The problem is the PATH environment variable. This is my PATH variable:

/cygdrive/d/Downloads/Chrome/WINDOWS.X64_180000_db_home/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Intel(R) Management Engine Components/iCLS:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Intel/Intel(R) Management En

owsApps:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft VS Code/bin

The commands works properly if I use the "inject environment variable" option of the Settings menu to add PATH to "/bin", but it overwrites my existing PATH variable. Is there a way to solve this issue? I think that appending "/bin" to PATH without overwriting it could solve this issue.

Version: 1.0.69
Platform: win32 10.0.17134
Plugins: none

Related problem: .bash_profile / .profile / .bashrc are not picked up, which could be used to correct the PATH variable.

The home directory is incorrect. We end up in the Windows user home directory C:\Users\<username> instead of Cygwin's /home/<username>, where bash profile files would be stored.

I'm having the same issues, not even windows commands work like dir.

But i managed to solve it by adding a environment variable.
path=%path%;C:\cygwin64\bin.

Commenting because this is still an issue. Installed alpha 81 yesterday and I had the exact same issue.
