Yes, go to Options -- Configure TexMaker. On left side of requester select QuickBuild. Now select the USER option, Use the wizard to build your desired sequence of commands. Provided you have properly installed your version of TeX you now have the correct command.

The following is the command string that my system built that works. 

pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode -shell-escape %.tex|bibtex %|pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode -shell-escape %.tex|pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode -shell-escape %.tex|makeindex "build\%.idx"|pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode -shell-escape %.tex|"C:/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Acrobat Reader DC/Reader/AcroRd32.exe" %.pdf

Edit #1 From the top menu, select options, then 'Configure Texmaker'.
On this screen, it is important that you select for the Pdf Viewer the correct external viewer for your system. Use the browse button right of the path window to allow you to browse for the appropriate system pdf viewer.

Now on the left margin select the Quick Build Icon. You will now see the following requestor.

Choose the wizard circled in the picture above. Now you will see the following picture.

Now select the commands in the order you want them to be executed in. After you select each command select 'add'.

  • why acrobat at the end.. i am running this on a unix system, so your path isn not valid here.. Commented Sep 5, 2016 at 16:27
  • @Lamda My system is Windows 10 and I use the acrobat reader for pdf viewing. If you use the TexMaker wizard (far right in the User Requestor for quickbuild) it should find your installed viewer (or you can browse for it. ) Commented Sep 5, 2016 at 16:43
  • under which command?.. I can't seem to find the internal one? Commented Sep 5, 2016 at 17:01
