You need to be in the 'src' directory to build the binary.

Desktop/aescrypt-3.0.9/src# make

That should work.

Is the file in the same directory? You either need to be in the directory with the file to be encrypted or provide the complete pathname to the file.

The error message you show is consistent with a case where the file you specify is not in the current directory.
