Okay you said earlier:

>>> no on C:\cygwin\usr no gcc folder but if the mingw32 folder, this is
>>> vygwin error because the whole development category is installed

which implies you installed MinGW, not Cygwin, tools, causing the issue.

You should ask about using these tools on the MinGW mailing list, see:

https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw/mailman/mingw-users/

after reading and following:

http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started
http://www.mingw.org/wiki/HOWTO_Install_the_MinGW_GCC_Compiler_Suite
