I have these versions, and nc is here happy and playful.

It is possible you attempted an upgrade while cygwin programs were 
running? Cygwin services also count. This is due a limitation on windows 
which locks files when they are in use, so cygwin updates can't replace 
the files and end up failing.

You may ensure everything is closed and services stopped, re-run 
setup-x86_64.exe, selecting the 'nc' package and switching it to 
"Reinstall". Then let the setup do its things.

If the setup is hanging, or have hung up and you had to force-close it 
the last install attempt you did, this is a strong sign that not just 
nc, but several other packages that have been attempted to upgrade may 
be compromised. To ensure that is not the case, a good

cygcheck -c

should help.

The package nc-1.10-4.tar.bz2 has 'usr/bin/nc.exe', which is the file 
you claim missing.

Hope this helps! :)
