Tried to compile/build a project to perform ext2/3/4 filesystem accession on Windows

The third part of it (denoted by prefix: 3> ) is the WDK, the Windows' DDK (Driver Development Kit) based build

So then use MS Visual Studio 2022 into which the project is upgraded (its .sln, .vcproj files) afterward and build it:

3>OSR DDKBUILD.CMD V7.4/r43 (2009-11-12) - OSR, Open Systems Resources, Inc.
3>The system cannot find the path specified.
3>DDKBLD: W7XP (free) using the Windows 7/Windows 2008 Server R2 DDK and %W7BASE%
3>DDKBLD: Directory: C:\Users\abdu\Downloads\ext2fsd\Ext3Fsd + argument(s): -cZ
3>DDKBLD: W7BASE: C:\WINDDK\7600.16385.1
3>DDKBLD: Run build -M -Ze -cZ for free version in .
3>'build' is not recognized as an internal or external command

So now simply ask help how to correct this build up to error free.
Thanks before.

You are trying to build this with a DDK that is 15 years old. Why are you trying to do that? That DDK was intended to work with Visual Studio 2008. They aren't mix-and-match.

"build.exe" should be in the DDK's "bin" directory; you would need to add that to the path, but I seriously doubt that any of the libraries that are included in that DDK are going to mix with VS2022.
