You may not be installing much with Windows Setup but may want to ensure you uninstall any stuff like Adobe Flash, Adobe Reader, Oracle Java, MS Silverlight, games, other "conveniences", "freebies", utilities, etc. pushed on you. You may be able to uninstall MS SQL Server, its CLR, SSDT but don't know impact. You have to keep MS.NET, PowerShell if installed as they may be used by MS processes. >> There are some good web pages >> on disabling services useless to you but not MS ;^> I did this before >> and after W10 upgrades and life is quieter and more productive.

You can download Cygwin snapshots: dll only, dbg, pkg, src, directly from https://cygwin.com/snapshots for x86{_64,} - instructions given on page. -- Take care.
