64-bit Cygwin.

I forgot exact details when problem happen. I see forked Emacs which I
usually terminate. It's unclear what process is going to be started.

I work with files under Git or Hg so Emacs makes a lot of forks during a day.

Cygwin installation is in exclusion in Windows Defender.

Here's my report:

  Sometimes Emacs sticks on forking...

Other also reported same instability but they have 3rd party anti
virus software.

I am glad to disable Windows Defender but for Windows 10 Home edition
they don't provide official way...
