To anyone who can help: I have tried multiple times to install cygwin without success. I cannot seem to find any online information about people doing recent installs or having any recent problems. I have watched videos of people installing cygwin and done the exact same steps and had no success. I am sorry if I am repeating a much asked question but I cannot seem to find any previous support here. My log file has the following errors (I am only including the two most recent tries in order to not have a huge email):
