You seem to have a Logitech webcam. Its "process monitor" is known to 
cause conflicts with cygwin (and is of dubious use at best).

Try to deinstall it *and reboot* to see if it doesn't solve your 
problem. Btw, this is called "BLODA interference" in the local jargon.
See

and

.

Best regards (Salut)
