Right. > I don't know about chere, chere must have settings in the registry, as it adds a 'bash here' menu option in explorer when you right click on a directory.

Right, available for installation, you'd have to run the setup scripts. I suppose running ssh-host-config wouldn't be a bad idea, not only would it install the Windows sshd service on the new system, but it would generate unique host keys, otherwise both the new and old systems would have the same key. Sounds like this is doable, but there may be a series of commands that need to be run, depending on the original installation.
