Hey,
First, the file README.md link is dead, and more specifically in the sentence
"Sftp-server is usually we provided to the SSH server software so it already exists on Linux / Mac. On Windows you only need to install openssh via cygwin and you will get sftp-server."
Link with openssh leads to the "Error: could not open file: x86_64 / openssh / openssh-7.2p1-1".

Therefore, I have a question, I try to install openssh, but try to install Cygwin with openssh, does not work because the "vagrant" suggests that I do not have ssh installed.
But if you install OpenSSH from this page: "http://www.openssh.com/" then I get the error: "'sftp-server' executable file can not be found on the host machine but is required for sshfs mounting to work. ".

What can I do to make this plugin began to work?

The link is dead because they updated the version to 7.2p2-1. I'll get that fixed.

When installing packages from cygwin you should be able to select and install openssh using the cygwin installer. Here is a guide that shows you how to install openssh using cygwin: link

Hi, sorry for the lack of checking if the answer given to work with me, but I'm a little busy with other matters. I promise by the end of this week to check and respond, if it worked me. :)

I installed once, I failed. Is there another tool that allows me to use this plugin? What a tool, which posted in the first post?

After cygwin is installed with openssh package you ether should add cygwin/bin folder to your user environment PATH variable, then start new windows cmd instance (so new PATH variable value is picked up) or run cygwin bash, then try to install vagrant plugin again.

@dustymabe - I tried, but probably something spoiled during setup and did not work. Ideally I would have missed installations "Cygwin" I wonder why it does not work correctly for the second program, which posted one in the first post.
