Hi Cygwin,
I am getting stuck at the perpertual/0.
Every postinstall files out there will hang for like 20mins before
proceeding to the next file.
Eventually when it its done,
When i click on the cygwin 64 bit terminal. The bash console just hang
there with the cursor and it is like not proceeding.when i tried to
close the terminal itb wasn't responding.
1. I have tried deleting the registry and deleting all cygwin related
files and reinstall again. However still facing the same issue.
2. Go to detail to kill bash or dash where ever it hang however got
prompt with error message that it wasn't responding
Further more this is a fresh installation on an entirely new computer.
Even after I manage to install successfully. The bash Cygwin 64
terminal just hangs on my Windows 10 terminal.

I wonder how many packages you're trying to install. How about starting
with a really small set and seeing if this has something to do with (a)
the number of packages (total size) or (b) some particular package(s)?
You're not giving us much to go on in your report, so I suspect you may
get only somewhat generic advice ...

Go minimal initially.
Wipe out your Cygwin root dir and everything below it.
Run Setup for ALL users, with no package selection, so only the Base
category gets installed.
Run the cygwin.bat file in your Cygwin root dir.
If that succeeds, rerun Setup to add some more packages.
Report any failures, with CygwinRoot/var/log/setup.log.full and
cygcheck -svr redirected output attached.
Cygcheck is actually a Windows console app in the CygwinRoot/bin/ dir,
so does not depend on Cygwin, only Setup (a Windows GUI app) for
installation.
