To reset all Cygwin Setup program settings rm /etc/setup/setup.rc or delete the
file from the equivalent path relative to your Cygwin root directory under Windows.

Please get your own IT team to diagnose why the Cygwin Setup program is not or
is no longer working on your system, when it worked two days earlier, and works
on thousands of others without issues.

Your own IT team most likely have added blocks to prevent it running, contacting
the Cygwin site, or your local mirror.

Cygwin is maintained and supported totally by a global network of volunteers in
their spare time, and is only available via email here to accommodate that.
