MinGW sh.exe must NOT be in your path

Question

Currently trying to setup my C development environment on windows with MinGW and it looks like CMAKE is giving me the following error:

sh.exe was found in your P         


        

Answer 1

I like @Elia's answer, but if you are using CLion, it uses the CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles CMake generator which doesn't have the sh.exe checking problem. Add this to your CMake line:

-G "CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles"
