Trevor King and I have now implemented a fix for this in a new release
of the Windows Installer. The new installer is available here:
https://github.com/swcarpentry/windows-installer/releases/download/v0.3/SWCarpentryInstaller.exe
and a PR is in to update the workshop template instructions to the new link:
https://github.com/swcarpentry/workshop-template/pull/269
If you are running a workshop that uses make and have already created
your workshop repo you should either sync the changes once they are
merged or change this link manually.
If some of you who where having problems could test this and let us know
about any issues we'd appreciate it.
Best,
Ethan

One possible fix for this may be to install Make for Windows from:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/make.htm
I installed it using the `Complete package, except source` Setup link
and everything seems to work. The location of the executable has to be
added to the path manually, but this might provide a reasonable
short-term hack for this.

Hi all-
Did one of you who taught this recently come up with a fix? I've
filed an issue on the installer - make is in the .swc/bin, which is
in the Windows users' path. But typing make at the command line
simply doesn't work. We've tried downloading the executeable Trevor
linked and putting it in the ~/.swc/bin, but we still get the
$LOCATION/.swc/bin/make.exe: error while loading shared libraries:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
error.
Thanks!

And as a quick fix, dropping [1] (SHA-1 sum
ad11047985c33ff57074f8e09d347fe122e047a4) into your PATH should get
you working (that's all the SWC Windows Installer does, anyway).
Cheers,
