Answer 1

It's because you don't have make installed on your computer. To install it, follow these steps:

1. Open UCRT64 present in MSYS2 and enter the following command:

pacman -S make

2. Now look for the MSYS2 installation location and open the usr\bin folder
3. Save the directory and place it in the environment variables
4. Reset cmd

And ready to use :)
