I don't have Make. I installed GNUWin32 which has make but it doesn't work.

process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, uname -a, ...) failed.
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, uname -a, ...) failed.
gcc -O3 -Wall -pedantic  -std=gnu99 -I.  -c -o libretro-dolphin-launcher.o libretro-dolphin-launcher.c
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, gcc -O3 -Wall -pedantic -std=gnu99 -I. -c -o libretro-dolphin-launcher.o libretro-dolphin-launcher.c, ...) failed.
make (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified.
make: *** [libretro-dolphin-launcher.o] Error 2

Can you please release the compiled file so we don't have to compile.

I've never compiled it on Windows, did make an issue for it though: #8 .....

I don't have Windows, so I'd love your help in getting it to work 👍

May open up a BountySource or something similar to help fund Windows development. Right now, the focus is Linux, but I'm very open to contributions! Have you managed to build RetroArch and a core on Windows? That may be a good first step.

Looks like it would need tweaking some of the Makefile to build the Windows binaries. Any help appreciated.

No I haven't. I'm waiting on the official port.

Agreed, the official port is a much better solution than this hack 😉
