Unable to compile single C++ file in Netbeans, but able to build full project

I am having issue with single file compilation in Netbeans when I right click and try to compile a file. I had other problems as given in "Netbeans: cannot find include file <iostream>, also, unable to resolve identifier std, cout" and fixed all other issues. Build works fine, but only compilation issue.

Compilation Error:

cd 'C:\Study Materials\C++\CPP Programs MP Compiled\Projects\collegeProject\collegeProject'
C:\MinGW\MSYS 1.0\bin\make.exe -f nbproject/Makefile-Debug.mk build/Debug/MinGW-Windows/FileHandling.o
Cannot run program "C:\MinGW\MSYS" (in directory "C:\Study Materials\C++\CPP Programs MP Compiled\Projects\collegeProject\collegeProject"): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

Build Log (only Part):

The problem is the space in the MinGW path "C:\MinGW\MSYS" is only part of the path "C:\MinGW\MSYS 1.0. Make sure you there are no spaces in the path where you install MinGW and MSYS.

mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started

MinGW Installation Notes

MinGW may have problems with paths containing spaces, and if not, usually other programs used with MinGW will experience problems with such paths. Thus, we strongly recommend that you do not install MinGW in any location with spaces in the path name reference. You should avoid installing into any directory or subdirectory having names like "Program Files" or "My Documents", etc.

See also Netbeans and MinGW-w64.
