Thank you Andrew, I didn't know the meaning of top-posting, using gmail
puts you at the beginning. And my english is very poor, I'm spanish.

Then, over this problem, its a pretty form to change the behaviour of
Cygwin from outside, simply setting the path cygwin64... the way you want.
Its a side effect... Appart of failed scripts, and I'm not in the security
branches, its a pretty form to inyect things to change behavihours.

I recommend to disable or erase all paths that refer to C:\cygwin64 or root
path.

For reference, here https://gist.github.com/mpicker0/a6a3f10e6b9278074f93,
show the use of Windows environment variable C:\cygwin64\bin.
