Problem with Codelite and MinGw64 (cant get them to work)

I have installed mingw64 and added it as a variable in the control panel, and when I tested it in the cmd (using g++ --version) and it work fine. Then I installed codelite and created a workspace (making sure I selected mingw64 as the compiler). I created a "hello" program and ran it, but got an error. I tried reinstalling both mingw64 and codelite but it does not change a thing.

This is the error I get:

C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /C ""C:/Program Files/mingw-w64/x86_64-8.1.0-posix-seh-rt_v6-rev0/mingw64/bin/mingw32-make.exe" -j4 SHELL=cmd.exe -e -f Makefile"

'C:\Users\A' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

The system cannot find the path specified. mingw32-make.exe: *** [Makefile:4: All] Error 1 ====0 errors, 0 warnings====

This is test code in case the problem is there:

#include <iostream>

int main() {
    std::cout << "hello testing";
    return 0;
}
