Did you restart Emacs after installing Grep?  Emacs won't notice any
changes to PATH while it (Emacs) is running.

If you did restart Emacs, please make sure that you modified PATH
correctly, i.e. in a way that will be in effect for all programs,
including Emacs.  In practice, this means you should modify PATH via
Control Panel, not in the shell window.

This error message says that the OS cannot find grep.exe.  You need to
find out why.  Something in the way you installed Grep is not right.
