How to install gcc in windows?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

First, download the MinGW 64-bit or 32-bit version. So, type MinGW 64 bit in Google and go to this link <\/span>mingw-w64.org<\/span> <\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Figure
Figure 1. mingw 64 bit official link<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. First, go to downloads.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. And Click on MinGW-w64 builds option. <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Click on Mingw-builds, installation:<\/span>sourceforge<\/span><\/a><\/span>. So, click over this. <\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  4. And wait for some time, and you must download the Mingw-w64-install.exe file. These steps are shown in Figure 2.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \"Figure
    Figure 2. Downloading the MinGW 64-bit version<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    And also, you must install MSYS. For that, go for this option Installation:<\/span> GitHub<\/span><\/span><\/a>.<\/span> So, click over this link, and it takes you to msys2.org. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 3. MSYS2<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 4. MSYS2 Installation<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    And here, you can see  Download the installer, as shown in Figure 4. Click over that option. <\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Let’s install the MinGW toolchain\u2014double-click over that application. (shown in Figure 5) <\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 5. MinGw toolchain<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Now click Next<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 6.Welcome page of MinGW-W64<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Here, if you are installing a 32-bit version, you select i686<\/strong>, or if your machine is the 64-bit version, then you can go for x86_64<\/strong>. So, it’s better to install the 64-bit version. So these options please don’t change (Figure 7). And now, let’s click Next<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 7. Mingw settings<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The MinGw application will be installed here, as shown in Figure 8. Please note this path because we will be referring to this path later. Now click Next<\/strong>.  <\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 8. Installation folder<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    It will take some time to install all the files. Now let’s click Next<\/strong> to continue the installation.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 9. Installation Files<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Now the installation is over. Click <\/span>Finish<\/b>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 10. Installation Completed<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    And we have also downloaded the MSYS2 installer. We have to install this. So, double click over that, and click Next<\/strong>, as shown in Figure 11. <\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 11. MSYS2 64 bit setup<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    You select the installation folder and click Next<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 12. Installation Folder<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Click Next<\/strong>, and you must complete this installation.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Figure
    Figure 13. MSYS installation<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Now the installation is completed. You need not run this, so uncheck this Run MSYS2 64bit now<\/strong> option. Then, click on Finish<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"how
    Figure 14. Complete the installation<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    After the installation, we have to verify by running some MinGW and MSYS commands.<\/span><\/p>\n

    For that, open the command prompt. And  type’ gcc.’ You can see that it says ‘gcc’ is not recognized as an internal or external command. And you also type ‘rm’ here, it says the remove command is not recognized. <\/span><\/p>\n

    Actually, we have already installed the MinGW toolchain and the MSYS toolchain. Still these commands are not recognized. So, to get rid of this problem, we have to do path setting. <\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"how
    Figure 15. Command Prompt<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    For that, Go to Properties<\/strong> and select Advanced system settings.<\/strong> Here, open Environment variables<\/strong>. (see Figure 16)<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"how
    Figure 16. Advanced system setting<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Here you have to modify some user variables. We have to edit this user variable, that is, path. Select the path option and click on Edit.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"how
    Figure 17. Path setting<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    And select <\/span>New<\/b> to add a new path. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The first path is the path where the MinGW tools are present, and another is where the MSYS files are present.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"how
    Figure 18. Edit environment Variable<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    How do you get that path?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

    Go to the Installation folder of MinGW. So, that is actually under C \u2192 program files \u2192 mingw-w64 \u2192 open that. Go under x84_64-8.1.0-posix-seh-rt_v6-rev0 \u2192 mingw64 \u2192 open the bin, and there are some tools. And select the path and copy it, as shown in Figure 19.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"how
    Figure 19. MinGW path<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    And you paste that path into the environment variable, shown in Figure 18.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    For the MSYS2 path, go to the C directory \u2013 msys64 \u2013 go under usr \u2013 bin and copy the path and come over to the environment variables to paste that path.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"how
    Figure 20. MSYS path<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    You have added the MinGW and MSYS path and then click OK, OK, OK.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Now reopen the command prompt and Type ‘gcc.’ It should be recognized. And the remove command also should be recognized, as you can see in Figure 21. <\/span><\/p>\n

    \"how
    Figure 21. Command prompt<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    These two commands we use to compile and clean the project. That’s a procedure to install a GNU tool for windows. <\/span><\/p>\n

    In the following article, I will cover for Linux and Mac.<\/span><\/p>\n
