Here's the error during the install:

Here's the pertinent line in the /var/log/setup.log.full:

cygrunsrv: Error installing a service: OpenService: Win32 error 1073:
The specified service already exists.^M
The post-install script for brltty registers a Windows service called
BrlAPI. If you reinstall Cygwin (say by deleting C:\cygwin and running
setup-x86.exe again) without removing this service, then the
post-install script will attempt to register this service again and you
will see the error.
Before uninstalling Cygwin, you can remove the BrlAPI service by typing:
cygrunsrv --remove BrlAPI
You can see if any other Cygwin services have been registered by typing
cygrunsrv --list
Cheers,
Dave.
