Thank you for the follow-up.


My previous posts appear to be incomplete because I was logging in via 
SSH from Debian GNU/Linux.


If I login as an Administrative user "admin" at the Windows 10 Home 
console and run Cygwin64 Terminal normally (without privilege escalation):

$ strace sshfs dpchrist@samba:/var/local/samba/dpchrist /samba/dpchrist

The terminal command pauses and a pop-up dialog window is displayed. 
This pop-up dialog window was not visible from Debian over SSH in my 
previous posts:

sshfs.exe - Entry Point Not Found

The procedure entry point cygfuse_report could not be located in the
dynamic link library C:\cygwin64\bin\sshfs.exe.


After a timeout, the following two lines appear in the terminal:

--- Process 9496 thread 9508 exited with status 0x0
--- Process 9496 thread 9504 exited with status 0x0


After clicking "OK" in the dialog, the dialog closes and the terminal 
command finishes:

--- Process 9496, exception c0000139 at 0000000000000000
--- Process 9496 thread 9512 exited with status 0xc0000139
--- Process 9496 exited with status 0xc0000139

$


The above sequence is reproducible both without privilege escalation and 
with privilege escalation ("Run as administrator").
