Looks like you did not enter your case directory of the elbow tutorial or forgot to copy it.

I think you have to enter your case directory. From the error message above I guess you are in the directory:

HTML Code:
Aadhi@Aditya /cygdrive/c/OpenFOAM/Aadhi-3.0.x/run
And it should be something like

HTML Code:
Aadhi@Aditya /cygdrive/c/OpenFOAM/Aadhi-3.0.x/run/elbow_tri
