If following the links to the instructions at the bottom of the page:

	https://cygwin.com/mailman/listinfo/cygwin/

"Cygwin Subscribers
...

options enter your subscription email address:

If you leave the field blank, you will be prompted for your email address"

does not work, then please try sending a blank email from your subscribed 
address to <mailto:cygwin-request AT cygwin DOT com?subject=unsubscribe> as detailed in 
the 4KB of headers in each email you get from cygwin AT cygwin DOT com.

If that does not work you may get help by sending a blank email from your 
subscribed address to: <mailto:cygwin-request AT cygwin DOT com?subject=help>

now the time has arrived that your project is obsolete, because Microsoft has

need. So, I have removed cygwin software from all my computers.

from Microsoft store for free, d) run terminal of Ubuntu from windows as an app: 
first time it will asks to set a username and password.

[WSL has been available for a few years now with a number of distros available 
on the Windows app store and github.
There are still many different use cases for each of the alternatives of Cygwin, 
WSL VMs, Unix VMs, Unix on hardware. Interoperability is still best under 
Cygwin; iffy under WSL with limitations and security not integrated: not seeing 
much value from using a common MS kernel under each WSL VM, rather than the 
native distro Linux kernel under an actual VM; somewhat available under VMs via 
mounts, still unsure how much I trust NTFS to manage "local" workstation VM 
Samba shares, although I do a fair amount of read/write from both sides for 
testing.]
