How to run ImageMagick library scripts in Windows with Cygwin

Question

I have reviewed many posts, but I did not find a solution to run ImageMagick scripts in Windows with Cygwin, despite configuring them following this post. It fails with an error

FILE ./0004.jpg DOES NOT EXIST OR IS NOT AN ORDINARY FILE, NOT READABLE OR HAS ZERO SIZE

Below is a screenshot of the error:

It seems you are not using the cygwin ImageMagick package

$ cygcheck -l ImageMagick | grep bin
/usr/bin/animate.exe
/usr/bin/compare.exe
/usr/bin/composite.exe
/usr/bin/conjure.exe
/usr/bin/convert.exe
/usr/bin/display.exe
/usr/bin/identify.exe
/usr/bin/import.exe
/usr/bin/mogrify.exe
/usr/bin/montage.exe
/usr/bin/stream.exe

The program you are calling is not a cygwin one so it does not understand the ./file format.
