"ls -d /C/Program/flow" gives the answer "No such file or directory"

It was the first time i used chmod

flow is not "flow.exe"
My program is "ab.exe" included in "C:/Program Files/Flow"
I attempt with :
"chmod a+x /cygdrive/c/Program/flow" and "chmod a+x
/cygdrive/c/Program/flow/ab.exe",
"chmod a+x /cygdrive/c/Program/flow"
"./ab.exe" or "./ab"
nothing happen.
when i say "nothing" is "the program doesn't run (i think because i don't see
anything)"
thanks you.
