Instruction is base on the "icemelon" post. Link to the post:

Use the link below to find out how to setup enviroment variable on your OS:

c_environment_setup

The instruction below was tested on the Windows 8.1 system and Sublime Text 3 - build 3065.

1) Install MinGW. 2) Add path to the "MinGW\bin" in the "PATH environment variable".

"System Properties -> Advanced -> Environment" variables and there update "PATH' variable.

3) Then check your PATH environment variable by the command below in the "Command Prompt":

echo %path%

4) Add new Build System to the Sublime Text.

My version of the code below ("C.sublime-build").

link to the code:

C.sublime-build

// Put this file here:
// "C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Packages\User"
// Use "Ctrl+B" to Build and "Crtl+Shift+B" to Run the project.
// OR use "Tools -> Build System -> New Build System..." and put the code there.

{
    "cmd" : ["gcc", "$file_name", "-o", "${file_base_name}.exe"],

    // Doesn't work, sublime text 3, Windows 8.1    
    // "cmd" : ["gcc $file_name -o ${file_base_name}"],

    "selector" : "source.c",
    "shell": true,
    "working_dir" : "$file_path",

    // You could add path to your gcc compiler this and don't add path to your "PATH environment variable"
    // "path" : "C:\\MinGW\\bin"

    "variants" : [

        { "name": "Run",
          "cmd" : ["${file_base_name}.exe"]
        }
    ]
