Why so complicated?
Also don't see why so complicated. While staying in the console, how
about:
-----
@echo off
cd /d "%~dp0\bin"
bash --login -i

An errorlevel check is IMO mandatory after a cd command. Otherwise
another bash in the PATH might be started if the directory does not exist.
Hmm... therefore it is also better to change the last line to:
.\bash --login -i
The directory change is intentionally done with two cd commands to avoid
possible problems with cmd variants (on Win10 "%~dp0" expands to a path
with trailing backslash).
