I'm going to assume that the person reporting this bug was using the Cygwin version of make 3.81.

If so, please see, for example, this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-make%40gnu.org/msg04151.html

If not, please add another note to this bug and I can reopen it.

I cannot reproduce this with a native Windows build of Make 3.81. I get the expected message:

make: *** No rule to make target `C:/Folder', needed by `target.o'. Stop.

What port of Make did you use, and where did you get the binary? If you yourself compiled Make, then with what compiler?

For the record, my Make binary was compiled with the MinGW port of GCC.

Using windows pathnames in dependencies will cause make to stop.

e.g.

target.o : C:/Folder

      • target pattern contains no `%'. Stop.
