Windows Makefile won't be made

Hello, please someone help. I built a custom keyboard, coded it using this lovely guide: https://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/how-to-build-your-very-own-keyboard-firmware-t7177.html

Everything is all well and good until I try to make the .hex Makefile. I've tried Cygwin. I've tried just using the Command Prompt. Both times I made sure I was in the correct folder. Both times I would try to use the command "make -f Makefile" as the tutorial says to. It always says that the "make" command is not found (Example: in  Cygwin: "-bash: make: command not found").

 

I'm on Windows 10 64-bit. I would rather not try to download a Linux thing.

 

Please help.

I'm not familiar with this project so this may be just a random question;

 

Do you have Cygwin in you Windows PATH?

Open Command Prompt and type `echo %PATH%` and check.

If not, search where you have installed your toolchain (where you make.exe and other apps are)

and add that folder to your Windows Path.

I have added this to my Windows path and I am still receiving the same error. I have another idea I can look at though.
