1. Do the widow lines only appear in certain cases, e.g. after a heading.

2. Use the context way to change the penalties:

\startsetups [mypenalties]

    \setdefaultpenalties

    \setpenalties\widowpenalties{3}{10000} % 3 == number of lines, 10000 == penalty between these 3 lines
    \setpenalties\clubpenalties {3}{10000}

\stopsetups

\setuplayout[setups=mypenalties]

\starttext
…
\stoptext
