GCC Windows Installer

A lightweight Windows application (13 MB) that automatically downloads, extracts, and configures GCC on Windows systems.

This tool simplifies GCC installation by handling the entire setup process, including PATH configuration, with minimal user interaction.

Overview

Installing GCC on Windows can be time-consuming due to manual setup steps and environment variable configuration. This project removes that complexity by providing a simple executable that completes the setup automatically.

The application downloads prebuilt GCC binaries from the trusted source(s), extracts them to a user-selected location, and configures the system PATH so GCC can be used immediately from the terminal.

Setup

  1. Run the installable executable found in the Releases section of this repository
  2. Choose the installation directory
  3. The application downloads the GCC binary archive
  4. Files are extracted automatically
  5. The system PATH is updated
  6. GCC becomes available in Command Prompt and PowerShell

Verification

After installation, open a new Command Prompt or PowerShell window and run:

gcc --version
