MinGW 2019 full offline installer setup for PC 32bit/64bit
I ran mingw-w64-install.exe on my (online) laptop. There are four files in the top level directory from the install that aren't in the.7z file: uninstall.exe, uninstall.ini, mingw-w64, and mingw-w64.bat. Mingw-w64 is a shortcut. Mingw-w64.bat adds the bin directory to the PATH and opens a cmd window. Download MinGW-w64 - for 32 and 64 bit Windows for free. A complete runtime environment for gcc. The mingw-w64 project is a complete runtime environment for gcc to support binaries native to Windows 64-bit and 32-bit operating systems.
MinGW- Install MinGW. MinGW means Minimalist GNU for Windows: GNU is a source of open source programming tools (GNU stands for GNU is Not Unix). In this handout you will download the files needed by GNU C; in the next you will download a version of Eclipse that is already set up to use MinGW.
- Dec 06, 2016 How To install MinGW on Windows 10 (GCC & G) December 6, 2016 admin C, C 4. As soon as you click download button on mingw website The following page will open in your browser (from the SourceForge.net web site). The following exe file will be downloaded with the name.
- A command-line installer, with optional GUI front-end, (mingw-get) for MinGW and MSYS deployment on MS-Windows; A GUI first-time setup tool (mingw-get-setup), to get you up and running with mingw-get. MSYS, a contraction of 'Minimal SYStem', is a Bourne Shell command line interpreter system.
It provides a complete Open Source programming tool set which is suitable for the development of native MS-Windows applications, and which do not depend on any 3rd-party C-Runtime DLLs. (It does depend on a number of DLLs provided by Microsoft themselves, as components of the operating system; most notable among these is MSVCRT.DLL, the Microsoft C runtime library. Additionally, threaded applications must ship with a freely distributable thread support DLL, provided as part of MinGW itself).
It compilers provide access to the functionality of the Microsoft C runtime and some language-specific runtimes. MinGW, being Minimalist, does not, and never will, attempt to provide a POSIX runtime environment for POSIX application deployment on MS-Windows. If you want POSIX application deployment on this platform, please consider Cygwin instead.
Primarily intended for use by developers working on the native MS-Windows platform, but also available for cross-hosted use, the app includes:
- A port of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC), including C, C++, ADA and Fortran compilers;
- GNU Binutils for Windows (assembler, linker, archive manager)
- A command-line installer, with optional GUI front-end, (mingw-get) for MinGW and MSYS deployment on MS-Windows
- A GUI first-time setup tool (mingw-get-setup), to get you up and running with mingw-get.
MSYS, a contraction of 'Minimal SYStem', is a Bourne Shell command line interpreter system. Offered as an alternative to Microsoft's cmd.exe, this provides a general purpose command line environment, which is particularly suited to use with Min GW, for porting of many Open Source applications to the MS-Windows platform; a light-weight fork of Cygwin-1.3, it includes a small selection of Unix tools, chosen to facilitate that objective.
is there any way to install mingw-w64 offline ? I tried many official sources and all of them seem to need some sort of internet access. I'm looking for something that works for both x32 and x64 systems. I tried to have a look at the official repository but I am not sure which files I need for this task.
Thanks in advance !

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...
The first 5 options are used to choose a single download package. I don't know about you, but I've no idea what to choose for threads and exceptions. Based purely on download stats, posix threads are used more than twice as much as win32, seh seems much more popular for 64-bit, dwarf for 32-bit, sjlj seems pretty unloved. I'm guessing 32-bit with posix and dwarf is the default.
To identify what the choices are, it uses a file repository.txt from this folder. That's just a pipe-separated text file - 5 fields for those 5 main options, plus one for the URL of the package to download.
Incidentally, if anyone knows where to find the source code for the installer, I'd really appreciate a comment - I've hunted high and low, found e.g. bug reports, but not found the source of the installer. Sources for mingw-64 binary packages are easy enough to find, though.
The binary packages themselves are in subfolders of this folder (Win32) and this folder (Win64).
I'm not sure what the shortcuts the installer offers to create are for - this is MinGW-w64, not MSYS or MSYS2, so there's no bash-based shell to provide shortcuts to. Probably they're just Windows command prompt shortcuts with the path set up.
Other than that shortcuts issue, all you do is unpack the package to a suitable folder, make sure that the mingw32bin or mingw64bin folder is on the path somehow, and you should be done. I've already tested this with one of the 32-bit gcc-5.4.0 packages - g++ compiled a hello-world with no problems.
There are alternative third-party builds in subfolders starting from one step further out here (32 bit) and similar subfolders of different Toolchains targetting * folders for 64-bit and other builds. ray_linn has various builds that include Ada (and Objective C/C++?) support. rubenvb has some older GCC and Clang versions. dongsheng-daily looks like daily builds, even including experimental GCC 7.
If you need MSYS too, let me know in comments. I've been installing that offline (along with MinGW32) for some time, so I have a list of which packages to install. You need quite a few packages, it's a pain getting them from SourceForge, but once you have them it's mostly just unpacking again. There's some minor 'postinstall' to do - some file to create, mainly where to find MinGW, plus creating a shortcut to the shell. I have AutoIt scripts to do that - a bit of a mess, using inappropriate methods because they were what I knew in AutoIt at the time, but they work OK.
There's MSYS2, but at first glance that's another online-installing-assumed issue, using the pacman package manager - probably very convenient, but not for the minority who can't use it.

Yes, you can install mingw-w64 offline if you use MSYS2's pacman on your internet-facing machine first, then transfer the files downloaded by pacman to your offline machine.
To your question, the great thing about pacman is it will grab the right versions of all dependencies.
Mingw 64 Bit Download
On your internet-facing machine:
- Use MSYS2 installer from http://www.msys2.org/
- Run MSYS2, and update the package database with
pacman -Syu In your MSYS2 terminal, create a folder to contain the packages you want (i.e. mingw-w64)
Use pacman's
repo-addscript to bundle up everything into a database:- Copy the MSYS2 installer AND
~/offline_packagesto your external flash drive.
On your offline machine:
- Install MSYS2.
- Copy the
offline_packagesfolder from your flash drive to a path MSYS2 can access (e.g.C:/msys64/home/user/offline_packages) Edit
C:/msys64/etc/pacman.conf- Comment out the
[mingw32], [mingw64], [msys]repositories. Add a new repository. This example uses the arbitrary path given above. Modify to point to wherever you copied the offline_packages folder.
- Comment out the
In an MSYS2 terminal, synchronize the pacman database with your new repository
Install mingw-w64, etc.
- Done!
