I wonder where you got a Windows binary distribution of a 15 year old version of Make.  This mailing list is from the GNU project, whose download site is linked from https://www.gnu.org/software/make/ as http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/.  I see only source tarballs there.  The primary maintainer's site, https://make.mad-scientist.net/, explains "In general, pre-compiled versions aren’t available".  He goes on to write "Eli Zaretskii makes pre-compiled Windows versions availabe [sic]; try https://sourceforge.net/projects/ezwinports/files/?source=navbar and search for the make-....zip files".  A quick Google reveals many other choices, like Mr Ionescu's suggestion below, very few of which, in my experience, which I'm afraid has been entirely outside the .hr TLD, are likely to offend your sensibilities with Croatian.

You may try a different distribution, for example:
