It seems clear that the system cannot find the lilypond executable.  Have you 
tried adding the path to lilypond to your PATH variable?

  Subject: Need help with lilypond-book


  Dear all,


  I need some help on getting Lilypond to work with LaTeX. I have worked with 
both for quite some time now, but am unable to compile my .lytex.


  For a start, I did not write my own scripts, but tried examples from 
different websites like:
  https://martin-thoma.com/how-to-write-music-with-latex/
  
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/280287/how-to-easily-include-ly-files-in-a-tex-document


  I understand that the compiling code should be entered via the command 
prompt, and figured out that (probably) I will need to specify paths to my 
Lilypond and LaTeX installations.. but commands inside the lilybook-script seem 
to apply to the working directory.. I'm confused.


  I have probably miswritten or forgotten something small. If you can help me, 
this would be greetly apprieciated! Thanks!



  This is my command prompt input and output:
  PS C:\Users\jc410\OneDrive\Documenten\Music\LaTeX Projects\Test> C:\"Program 
Files (x86)"\Lilypond\usr\bin\lilypond-book --pdf lilybook.lytex
