Doesn't look like:

(1;0) /cygdrive/c> type compinit
compinit not found

However I think I should have the completion system installed:

(1;1) /cygdrive/c> zmodload
zsh/compctl
zsh/complete
zsh/main
zsh/zle

Is there an additional module that I need here?

Thank you for this suggestion. I'll have a look at it!
