see file install/Make.cygwin, and the following paragraph in the manual:

-----------------------------------------------------------
Note for MS-Windows users:
The Makefile for Windows PCs is based on a Makefile written for an
earlier version of PWscf (1.2.0), contributed by Lu Fu-Fa, CCIT,
Taiwan. Since there have been many changes to the installation
procedure, the provided Makefile -- which has never been tested -- may
not work.  You will need the CygWin package (a UNIX environment for PC
which runs in Windows). The provided Makefiles assumes that you have the
Intel compiler with MKL libraries installed.  Another possibility is to
install Linux in dual-boot mode.  This can be done without touching
Windows (the only somewhat delicate operations are creating a partition
for Linux and installing a boot loader).
