Hello,

I also tried a number of other combinations and orders of arguments, all with
similar results.

I would try --args '-n' instead of -a -n. Perhaps some other
variation of quoting will be needed to make clear to cygrunsrv
that the -n is for the application, not for cygrunsrv.
Unadorned options anywhere on the command line are parsed by getopt, which is
why the options are quoted by cron-config:
$ awk '/cygrunsrv\s-I/,/[^\\]$/' /usr/bin/cron-config
if cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -e CYGWIN="${cygenv}" -e
TMP="/tmp" \
-e TEMP="/tmp" -a "-n" -d "Cron daemon" -u "$cyg_username"
-w "$password"
if cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -e CYGWIN="${cygenv}" \
-a "-n" -d "Cron daemon"
I have normally found it more useful to run Cygwin *-config as elevated admin,
and if from cmd with Cygwin /bin/ in path, then as `bash -c /usr/bin/*-config`.
You can modify settings either with:
$ cygrunsrv -E $srv; cygrunsrv -R $srv; cygrunsrv -I $srv ...
possibly adding:
-d, --disp "CYGWIN Cron daemon"
-c, --chdir `cygpath -m /`
-O, --preshutdown
-y, --dep syslog-ng ...
or with:
$ sc config help
DESCRIPTION:
Modifies a service entry in the registry and Service Database.
USAGE:
sc config [service name] ...
OPTIONS:
NOTE: The option name includes the equal sign.
A space is required between the equal sign and the value.
To remove the dependency, use a single / as dependency value.
type=
start=
error=
binPath=
group=
tag=
depend=
obj=
DisplayName=
password=
for example:
$ sc cron config start= delayed-auto DisplayName= "CYGWIN Cron daemon" \
depend= syslog-ng
or
$ s=/proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/cron; \
regtool set -d $s/KEY DWORD-VALUE; \
...
giving something like:
$ s=/proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/cron; \
for p in {'',/Parameters{,/Environment}}; do \
echo; echo $s$p:; regtool list -v $s$p;
done

The keychain is the better for text mode and lightweight. Has not been updated since 2018 (I see that are finding maintainers), but work well and support for GPG2. The actual is very old 2013... Improve solution is not an option. The Cygwin has the possibility to select exact versions and can be live two versions.
