Windows XP SP2
Dev C++ 4.9.9.2

I installed Dev C++ from an administrator account
"Joel" for all users.

I then set it up from a limited account "Joel
(Limited)" and tried to compile some test apps.

I got this error for the Hello example:


Executing make...
make.exe -f "C:\Dev-Cpp\Examples\Hello\Makefile.win" all
g++.exe Hello.o -o "Hello.exe" -L"C:/Dev-Cpp/lib"

'C:\DOCUME~1\JOEL' is not recognized as an internal or
external command,
operable program or batch file.

make.exe: *** [Hello.exe] Error 1

Execution terminated


Running make from the command prompt causes the same
error. On the other hand, manually running:
g++.exe Hello.o -o "Hello.exe" -L"C:/Dev-Cpp/lib"
...works just fine, and Hello.exe is compiled correctly
and works.
