'Where is make on msys2/mingw-w64?
On msys2, I installed the mingw-w64 toolchain. I can run gcc from MINGW64 shell, but not make. pacman claims mingw-w64-x86_64-make is installed. What gives?
Solution 1:[1]
The answer is simple but not obvious. They distribute mingw32-make.exe and expect you to symlink it by hand. Typical *nix-think.
Solution 2:[2]
Just to add some details to the previous comments: On Windows you can open a command prompt (as admin), go to the c:\<your msys installation path>\mingw64\bin directory and run mklink make mingw32-make.exe to create a symbolic link. That will allow you to run the make command in the MINGW64 shell

Your PATH directories may not be set correctly.
