That is a web page which contains instructions:
"*Downloading and Installing*
Cygwin/X is installed via Cygwin's Installer, setup-x86_64.exe, and the
installation process is documented in the Cygwin/X User's Guide."
with links to:
http://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe
https://x.cygwin.com/docs/ug/
As Cygwin is a software installation and download site, some corporate,
commercial, and possibly retail, ISP filters may block it.
Some filters block all attempted downloads, and may block address ranges
belonging to those sites.
You might want to ask someone in your PC support group or IT department.
Try downloading from an unfiltered corporate PC (often within PC support
groups or IT departments), home (with corporate filters or AV products
disabled), via an alternate ISP, or via a free VPN.
If you could post error codes and
