Don't panic. Your keys are still there. Also, please don't put a log
into the body of the email. It's a better idea to attach it.

Your problem could have been caused by incorrect permissions in the latest=

base-files' package contents.

Please check and correct perms if necessary in:

/etc/bash.bash_logout
/etc/profile.d
/etc/profile.d/tzset.sh
/etc/profile.d/tzset.csh
/etc/profile.d/lang.csh
/etc/profile.d/lang.sh
/etc/bash.bashrc
/etc/skel/.inputrc
/etc/skel/.profile
/etc/skel/.bashrc
/etc/skel/.bash_profile
/etc/profile

All of them should have owner/group root.root and 644 perms (rw-r--r--)
Afterwards, close all cygwin apps and restart a mintty session.
Please report back if that solved your issue.
