You missed the "Change to the build-directory." part of Kornels advice. 

I think "D:\LyXGit\Master\lib\examples" isn't your build directory or at least 
it shouldn't be so.

AFAICS, you're asking for help regarding ctest now for the first time giving a 
concrete example.

I have to admit it took me some minutes too to realize how it works.
Therefore your complaint is valid. But you're using a strange tone, IMHO.
Nobody is interested in making you angry or frustrated.
And there is a fundamental problem with documentation of these things
on windows. Georg, who did most of the work, doesn't have the tools
and the desire to work on Windows.
