Actually, there is in the FAQ:
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.uninstall-all

Although usually it is possible to upgrade an existing cygwin installation
rather than having to resort to uninstall/reinstall.

What does /var/log/setup.log.full say about that installation attempt?

/bin/sh is missing because 00ash.sh didn't run to completion.  We need to
solve why that didn't happen, although running setup.exe again may help.

Help us help you.  Follow the directions at
http://cygwin.com/problems.html, and attach, as a text file, the output of
'cygcheck -svr' so we can see where things currently stand for you.
