To avoid conflicts you may first want to stop some Windows services 
using first sc, then net as backup:
for srv in	ssh ssh-agent sshbroker sshproxy	\
		sshd sshdbroker sshdproxy		\
		vmictimesysnc w32time # for GPS ref Windows NTP server
do
	sc stop		$srv
	sleep 1
	net stop	$srv
done
then start all Cygwin services using cygrunsrv, then sc, then net to be 
more sure:
for srv in $(cygrunsrv -L)
do
	cygrunsrv -S	$srv
	sleep 1
	sc start	$srv
	sleep 1
	net start	$srv
done
with suitable checks, messages, and logging added.
