/home is created on the first successful login. So now we need to figure
out why your login was not successful.

When this happens, something to try is open a cmd.com window, change
directories to where the binaries were installed (in your case,
c:\cygwin\bin), then run '.\bash --login -i' and see if any error messages
appear. You can also run '.\bash -livx' for a verbose login, to see
which, if any, command being run during the login process is a culprit.

Correct, that is the default .bat file installed by setup.exe.
Something else you should do is look at these directions:

In particular, the part about including the output of 'cygcheck -svr' as a
text attachment will help us learn more about your setup, and perhaps make
it easier to diagnose the problem.
