Try rerunning setup.exe to reinstall bash:

> Not Found: sh

Until that line of cygcheck -svf is resolved, the bash postinstall script
has not correctly run, and cygwin will be unusable.  If you are getting
errors while trying to install bash and rerun the postinstall script, then
there may be some permissions problems to research.  But hopefully the
reinstall of bash will solve your problems.
