You can download the latest installer from the MSYS2 page or use this direct link to the installer and open it.
Install it with default settings and check the run MSYS2 now box at the finish page and click finish.

In this terminal install MINGW64 by running this command and press enter. pacman -Syu

Step 5: Check your MinGW Installation.

To check that your MinGW-w64 tools are correctly installed and available, open a Command Prompt and type:

gcc –version
g++ –version
gdb –version

If MinGW is installed correctly you should see the version of your installation.
