I open a new C++ Hello World Project and try to build and run it. The build goes without errors, but when I run it, there is no output to the console. When I run the executable file manually, it complains: The program can't start because libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this program.

I have recently installed MinGW in the default directory; which Eclipse recognizes when I open a new C++ project. When I choose the Microsoft Visual C++ toolchain which I also have installed, it works properly. Do you suggest to just use this last toolchain then, or is there an easy way to fix this error?

The sticky posts at the top of this forum informed you that C/C++
