Thank you for your post.

As you suggested I changed my PATH to "C:\cygwin\bin" but it didn't help.
Now, cygcheck reports that all the commands (except perl.exe) are not found.
Of course I double checked and I am sure that C:\cygwin\bin is valid and
contain all the command files. 

cygcheck2.out attached

I just noticed that when I launch "bash --login -i" from a windows console 
the prompt is only "bash-3.2$" (does not show "user@hostame")
