Turns out the problem was not with the Sage installer at all. There was
a pre-existing installation of Cygwin to which the system path pointed.
After removing the Cygwin64 directory from the path, the Sage
installation works.

Dear Fernando,
The error should be reported to
https://github.com/sagemath/sage-windows
If you do so, include a more complete description
of your settings. That is
- your operating system (ie which Windows version)
- the version of the SageMath Windows installer
you tried (ie 0.6.1 or 0.6.2 since you mentioned SageMath 9.2)
- if you had a previous working SageMath on the same machine
Best

I have installed Sage on lots of windows machines using the prepared
binary, but this time I'm having trouble.
The installation seems to run fine and creates the icons. When I
click on the SageMath 9.2 icon, however, I get this:
mount: /tmp: Invalid argument
Sage home directory set to 'C:\Users\fqgouvea'
Close and restart all Sage sessions for the new setting to take effect.
And then nothing for a long time. If I lose my patience and close
that window (one time I waited a whole day), then the next time I
click I get a blank terminal window.
Any idea what might be going on?
Thanks,
Fernando
