MinGW-w64 - for 32 and 64 bit Windows

If you are wondering what to do after the download read this -download -open the zip -extract the zip -open the cmd -enter g++ your_program.cpp -o my_program g++ is the compiler. your_program.cpp is the name of your source file. -o your_program specifies that the generated executable file will be named "your_program".

I managed to get this version of MinGW working without using the installer. Use this video on YouTube to help: Install MinGW-W64 from archive on Windows The single file that is downloaded can be unzipped using 7-zip. Add the bin folder to your environment variables.

for those who get an error go to this link download the file manually and add the folder to C it will work after that

I've been using this compiler for quite some time and it's great. However, I am facing problems during installation on a new PC. The download of files is EXTREMELY slow and suddenly the installation fails. This issue has been reported by others already. As this issue is not related at all with the functionality of the package I give them 5 stars expecting to have a solution as soon as possible. UPDATE: I found the solution: Go to the "Problems Downloading" button when downloading the files and change the mirror to a closer location. Strangely, I live in the UK and the German server was not working properly. Selected the server from France and it downloaded lighting-fast! Unzipped the file to my selected folder and voila. Worked. Hope this helps

Awesome, really helps me to compile FLOSS projects.
