Can you post your script here?

I used the normal setup-x86_64.exe procedure, and it's not in my
appwiz.cpl panel either.

> 1)How i uninstall cygwin on this case?

I usually simply delete my C:\bin\cygwin64\ folder and the registry
keys. Off the top of my head:
...\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Cygwin,
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygwin and one or two others.

Isn't "root" a MySQL username? If I recall correctly its default
password is either empty or "root".
