That's not what you said in your original mail. You said "when I try to
update my 32-bit Cygwin using setup-x86-64". Again, you can't do that.
And you need to use the commandline options that have been pointed out
multiple times now. They're making it intentionally hard to install
32-bit Cygwin, because it's no longer supported. You need to read the
instructions more carefully.
And if it's that you're trying to do an in-place upgrade of an existing
32-bit Cygwin installation to 64-bit, you can't do that either. AFAIAA,
you need to do a fresh 64-bit installation to a different tree, and then
copy your locally changed and locally created files from the old 32-bit
tree to the new 64-bit one.
