This is the Windows find program, not Cygwin find.

You need to set your path properly in Emacs, to include the Cygwin bin
directory.
I don't use the W32 package, so I don't know if it is supposed to find
the Cygwin path for you.
I set my path like this:
(setq exec-path
(list
(expand-file-name "~/bin")
(getenv "INSTALL_BIN")
"c:/Gnu/GNAT-6.0.2/bin"
"c:/altera/71/quartus/bin"
(getenv "MODEL_TECH")
(getenv "EMACS_BIN")
"c:/Projects/gnavi/gnatcom/tools"
; "c:/Gnu/Ghdl-0.25/bin"
"c:/Gnu/monotone-build_mingw"
"c:/Apps/monotone" ; dlls for mtn
"c:/usr/local/bin" ; X11 gtkwave installed here
"c:/apps/bazaar"
"c:/bin" ; cygwin
"c:/usr/X11R6/bin" ; cygwin
"c:/Gnu/maxima-5.9.1/bin"
"c:/texmf/miktex/bin"
"c:/Gnu/apache-ant-1.6.5/bin"
"c:/Windows/system32"))
(setenv "PATH" (mapconcat 'identity exec-path path-separator))
