Right, but the OP _wanted_ to keep their old paths. Gilbert, you can
change the install path of Cygwin64 at install-time to be C:\cygwin.
There's no requirement for the 64-bit version to be installed in a
"cygwin64" directory.
Alternatively, you could let it install into C:\cygwin64 and then make a
Junction or Symbolic Link (e.g. using mklink in a Command Prompt) from
cygwin to cygwin64, but if it were me I'd probably go with your original
intention.
