DE1-SoC "my_first_HPS" tutorial

I want to use HPS on DE1-SoC board. I am following the instructions provided in the manual My First HPS. I downloaded and installed EDS under C:\altera\15.0 directory. When I type "Make"on the Embedded Command Shell, I get the error massage; 'Make' is not recognized as internal or external command ....... I searched for a Make.exe within C:\altera\15.0\embedded and there are several; I do not know which one to execute to compile my program, however I decided to execute this one:

C:\altera\15.0\embedded\ds-5\bin\Make

I get a error message - se attached screen shot.

Is this the right "Make" ?

How to define a path for the right Make?

My operating system is Windows 7

Thanks

    Hello,

    Could you please check if you have set the SOCEDS_DEST_ROOT environment variable as C:\altera\15.0\embedded or not?
