Cygwin is under Windows, so you have first to install the windows version
and then run it under cywin
Windows
  Use ConTeXt with Cygwin

"""

After installing the ConTeXt suite, you can run it under Cygwin. With
Cygwin, you may use gmake and other Unix tools for your automated workflow.

   1. Run setuptex.bat in DOS command prompt
   2. In the same DOS prompt, enter Cygwin by running cygwin.bat (in your
   Cygwin installation directory)
   3. Under Cygwin prompt, run context.cmd test.tex . Note that the
.cmdextension is needed under Cygwin.
