Although the following isn’t fully tested yet, an offline installer seems unnecessary. Based on some screenshots for a bug report, the online installer asks the following questions… Version ………. seems to be the GNU GCC version number Architecture ….. i686 / x86_64 Threads ………. posix / win32 Exception …….. dwarf / sjlj / seh Build … Read more
When running mingw-64-install.exe, you have to choose the x86_64 architecture on the settings screen. With this architecture, 64-bit is also the default target. If you run g++ -v, you should get something like: C:\>g++ -v Using built-in specs.

That depends on which variant of toolchain you’re currently using. Both DWARF and SEH variants (which come starting from GCC 4.8.0) are only single-target. You can see it yourself by inspecting the directory structure of their distributions, i.e. they contain only the libraries with either 64- or 32-bit addressing, but not both. On the other … Read more
Easiest way to remove ‘MINGW64’ is to comment two lines in file: \Git\etc\profile.d\git-prompt.sh … # PS1=”$PS1″‘\[\033[35m\]’ # change to purple # PS1=”$PS1″‘$MSYSTEM ‘ # show MSYSTEM
I recently ran into the exact same issue. After trying all the advice from this thread and a lot of other threads, I finally found a solution here, respectively in the linked issue here. Disabling AMD Radeon graphics driver in the Windows device manager and switching to integrated Intel HD graphics worked for me – … Read more
Unfortunately, the MinGW-w64 installer you used sometimes has this issue. I myself am not sure about why this happens (I think it has something to do with Sourceforge URL redirection or whatever that the installer currently can’t handle properly enough). Anyways, if you’re already planning on using MSYS2, there’s no need for that installer. Download … Read more
There’s a short overview at MinGW-w64 Wiki: Why doesn’t mingw-w64 gcc support Dwarf-2 Exception Handling? The Dwarf-2 EH implementation for Windows is not designed at all to work under 64-bit Windows applications. In win32 mode, the exception unwind handler cannot propagate through non-dw2 aware code, this means that any exception going through any non-dw2 aware … Read more
To use the MinGW-w64 with Win32 native threads you can install the mingw-std-threads headers. As described on that page, this is because MinGW-w64 is a port of GCC, but GCC does not include any native thread support. Instead GCC installations typically implement threading via either gthreads or pthreads as a part of glibc. MinGW-w64 does … Read more

Seems like you are trying to compile even when the previous process is still running. You must track it from task manager and kill the process before you compile it again. Looking into your comment,seems like a permission issue may be,check if you are running the command prompt or the IDE with admin privilege or … Read more
