Please don't.
In any case, you might wish to consult the license you have for Windows
to see if you are permitted to do this...

Another clue - flags -d -n -N probably solve the problem or make the
problem very rare

I have little doubt that here is a bug in the Cygwin installer. I
reproduce the problem
consistently. I use the following command 10 times
setup-x86.exe -q -s http://cygwin.mirror.constant.com
The setup fails one time of three in my Win10 64 bits setup.
Wait what? are you using setup-x86.exe? or setup-x86_64.exe?
I have run this command many times, but I can't reproduce this problem.
Despite more than 10 emails from you on this subject, you still haven't
mentioned what version of setup you are using.
You might like to try installing the cygwin upx and gdb packages, and
then (assuming you are using setup 2.883):
upx -d setup-x86-64.exe
wget https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.883.x86_64.dbg
mv setup-2.883.x86_64.dbg setup.dbg
and then, in an elevated shell:
gdb --args setup-x86-64.exe -q -s http://cygwin.mirror.constant.com
at the '(gdb)' prompt
(gdb) r
when your error occurs:
(gdb) bt
