Mingw-w64 is a free and open source software development environment to create Microsoft Windows PE applications. It was forked in 2005–2010 from MinGW (Minimalist GNU for Windows). MinGW-w64. Original author(s) OneVision Software.
It is essential that the installation path does not contain any spaces. Therefore, you cannot install MinGW-w64 in Program Files. We recommend to create a folder mingw-w64 on your system drive (e.g., C:\mingw). Install a current version and specify win32 as thread when requested.
If you have not installed gcc compiler and trying to use gcc command then the error message is obvious as the functionality is not available on your computer. If you have not installed gcc compiler, then install MinGW gcc compiler on your development environment.
Newer MinGW-w64 releases are now available at https://winlibs.com/ as standalone packages that don't need an installer. Just extract to a folder and start using. This also allows having multiple versions on your side by side (e.g. 32-bit and 64-bit).
