Traditional Arabic is a uniscribe-compliant font, but not a fully opentype
font. Uniscribe also supports older, pre-unicode protocols. In other
words, TraditionalArabic is platform-dependent. So unless M$ has updated
it in a recent OS, it will not work in ConTeXt MkIV. Since XeTeX uses the
local libraries, then mkii/xetex on windows might work.
Best wishes
Idris
