Hi Andrew


I agree completely about registry changes but this one's easily undo-able.


I'm just experimenting really - I've got Arch Linux working well now in Virtualbox \
and Lilypond/Frescobaldi also running well.

Hi Damian,

I know this may not be the answer you are wanting, but given that you
have such a lot of heavy machinery on Windows to run LilyPond under
Linux, why not simply run Debian or distro of your choice in
Virtualbox, and you can even get VSC for Linux if you must. It's very
easy to get point and click going in Linux. I am deeply averse to
messing with the Windows 10 registry, no matter how clever the hack
may be. But my feelings about the registry are not shared by all. I do
all my professional work in Virtualbox Linux with Lilypond happily
pointing and clicking away for years. On this list some time ago I
posted a HOWTO for Ubuntu in this area, and the NR of course has some
other useful info for Linux.
