The following command on a clean Windows 10 virtual machine setup-x86_64.exe -p wget,screen -q -R C:\cygwin -s http://cygwin.mirror.constant.com completes fine, sets the icon on the desktop. When I open the cygwin terminal and try commands wget or screen I am getting "command not found" Indeed folder C:\cygwin does not contain wget and screen utilities. Apparently I am still missing something about the usage of quiet mode
