If you used Sysprep utility to clone to many PCs the problem is missing right for System account in / and below, see
<http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2010-01/msg00485.html>
I have solved the problem by adding rights with the command
cacls "C:\Program Files\cygwin" /T /E /G SYSTEM:F
before running sysprep. After that minisetup (running under System account) can correct old SID in ACLs also in cygwin directories and question marks disappear.
