Where did you read that nano needs cygwin.dll?  Where did you
get the nano that you are running?  What version is that?

We do not provide any binary nor any support for nano on Windows.

Also, this is a development list, not a place to ask support
questions.  Those should go to help-nano.  Please reply there.
