  1. Download and run the latest MinGW tdm64 installer.

  2. Select Yes to allow the installer to make changes to your machine.

  3. Select Create.

  5. Leave the default installation directory and select Next.

    Note: The build scripts expect the compiler to be at c:\TDM-GCC-64. If you install the compiler to a different location, you will need to create a symbolic link to the install directory (See Windows support for symbolic links for additional information.)
