To remove services that installed by cygrunsrv install it again:

   cmd# setup.exe -p cygrunsrv

locate it and run shell prompt:

   cmd# cygrunsrv -L   # to list installed services
...
   cmd# cygrunsrv -R sshd   # to individually remove each installed service

Next you can remove whole cygwin installation directory...

That is.

This can happen because some process have open handles to this directory.

Try run procexp.exe Ctrl+F and type path to find and kill such processes...
