Duh, just replying to myself to let you know that there's an even
simpler way to get the effect you wanted, and you don't even need
'run.exe'. You can directly schedule 'bash.exe' to run in the Task
Scheduler. The command line to schedule for execution is as follows:

C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -c "/myfolder/myscript.sh"

-SM
