I assume that by meaning make you are refering to GnuWin's make.

The cmd throwed an error because the make.exe file is not in the environment variables to call it as a command.

I tried calling it by giving the complete path (C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32\bin\make.exe) and it worked perfectly.

Also, you can register it with cmd to invoke it as a command. Add the path to PATH environment variable.
