Although it helped greatly, I'm still unable to open some files with 
Cygwin apps.

Windows tools have no problems accessing them.

Some Windows tools say for example "this directory contains file names 
from a different code page" (i.e., Total Commander will say this when 
entering a directory which contains such a file).


Is there a setting which will enable Cygwin apps to open all files, 
irrespective of their name encoding?
