I hope that you really executed the following:

    $ ipc-daemon --install-as-service
    $ cygrunsrv --install postmaster --path /usr/bin/postmaster --args "-D /usr/share/postgresql/data -i" --dep
ipc-daemon--termsig INT --user postgres --shutdown 
    $ cygrunsrv -S ipc-daemon # actually this step is optional
    $ cygrunsrv -S postmaster

Note the following:

    $ fgrep 1062 /usr/include/w32api/winerror.h
    #define ERROR_SERVICE_NOT_ACTIVE 1062L

which is not good. :.)
