Squid by default uses a memory based cache these days. Unless your 
traffic is non-cacheable you should be seeing some things stored there 
without any configuration.

As far as I know that directory path should be written as:

  /c/Squid/cachedir


The '/cygdir' prefix from examples tutorials is part of CygWin 
environment configuration.
