As Greg points out in a subsequent message, you need to tell Cygwin where
to find "build.bat".  You'd need to do the same in Mingw but there you've
probably had its location in your path for a while so it's likely this
detail has slipped from your memory.

Newbie guides for Linux are your best bet if you need help from ground zero.
