I uninstalled Beyond Trust with our IT help, rebooted, same behavior.
I then came upon another thread that talks about the compression.
I didn't build it, I just decompressed it and now setup-64bit works fine.
For some reason, 32bit doesn't have any of this problem.
If it is not too much of trouble, I would request that you provide an
uncompressed version too.
The file size is not that bad, It came to be about 5MB only.
Perhaps, suggest in the installation instructions to try in case it doesn't
launch?
What was the URL of the thread about compression?
Which file did you download about 5MB, from which URL, how did you
download and decompress it: using which tools, commands, options, and
what were the before and after sizes?
There appear to be no Cygwin setup files about 5MB:

integrity of the downloaded files using sha512sum -c, and the Cygwin key
with which you can check the integrity of the executables and their
signatures using gpg/gpg2 --verify.

You will probably need to restart Windows after any changes in order to unload
or reload DLLs and associated data.
Does WinDBG still show the DLL loaded?

Many of these apps have difficulty handling dynamic modification, cleanly
removing themselves from the call or message chains they insert themselves
into, transparently passing along arbitrary calls, data, events, or messages,
especially when application code is multithreaded and reentrant using mutexes
and waits.
Beyond Trust is on the Cygwin Big List of Dodgy Apps: poorly written (often so-called
"anti-malware", "anti-virus", or "security") software that monitors, logs,
blocks, and/or interferes with normal operation of many applications, with effects sometimes
indistinguishable from malware, and known to prevent Cygwin working properly; see:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html*faq.using.bloda__;Iw!!A3Ni8CS0y2Y!uPaRC6ohLqsjqrbgUACGkx243avIO2jUMYZ09x5cgOrHWncL_fmuGb_5k5qPX0GSDDg$
Beyond Trust has caused problems because its certs became outdated unless you
kept the product and its certs updated. Try updating the product and check its
certs are up to date in the cert store.
If that fails you may need to raise a case with the product vendor regarding
Cygwin 64; especially useful to mention:
