That probably shouldn't happen. In such cases, I usually don't worry
about finding out what exactly has happened. I move the stuff I want
to keep from my home directory to somewhere outside Cygwin's
directories (hopefully not forgetting any config files I've
customized). Then I use setup.exe to uninstall everything, then I
delete 'C:\Cygwin' (or whatever) using Windows Explorer, probably give
it a reboot for luck, then run setup.exe again to reinstall
everything, and move my files back.

Best regards,
Buster.
