Perhaps a better question is - where did you add it?

You're supposed to add it to your global environment (in Windows) or,
if you prefer, to the settings for CYGWIN in your crond service setup.
Doing the latter requires more knowledge and effort than the former,
which is why I would recommend it.  You will also need to restart
crond and stop all other Cygwin processes before doing so to be sure
that Cygwin picks up the change.

If this is not enough for you to solve your problem, I'd recommend
reviewing the problem reporting guidelines here:

We'll need more information about your configuration before being able
to suggest other avenues.
