I ran them all, with the following results:

bash-3.2# /etc/postinstall/000-cygwin-post-install.sh
bash-3.2# /etc/postinstall/base-files-mketc.sh

UAC is the first thing I turn off when spinning up a new machine :)

I'm not an expert at this...I usually just install, configure the SSH server, 
and go about my business. I've never had it not work before.

I managed to run all but 3 of the postinstall scripts manually, and that has 
restored some basic functionality (e.g., before this, I couldn't even run the 
"ls" command without a "command not found" error). I'm leery of going through 
the SSH server install in this state.
