  Your uninstall-fu is weak.  You didn't delete the service when you moved
C:\cygwin to one side and reinstalled.  Hence ssh-host-config didn't
reinstall the service because it thought it was already installed.

  There's a procedure in the FAQ for comprehensively uninstalling cygwin.
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.uninstall-all
and one for how to uninstall a cygwin service:
