Every time I update the cygwin package, I get a warning that in-use
files have been replaced and that I should reboot. I assume this is
caused by a Cygwin service, although at one point somebody on this
list (I think it was Corinna) said that SETUP stops these services
automatically. So I'm

That means that there is some service that you do not have access to.

And: If there are not CygWin processes (services,
