Installing GNU gcc source on Windows 10

Installing GNU gcc source on Windows 10

[Pierre Gaumond]

Hello,

I have a rather strange condition.

I'm on Windows 10 and I already have a version of GNU gcc on my system (8.3)

(Mingw-w64 from sourceforge)

I also have to mention that I'm totally blind and that I use a screen 
review and voice synthetizer software (JAWS 2018).

I have Cygwin64 also on my system.

And, finally, I have gcc9.3 in tar.gz format.

I can use Cygwin to uncompress my file since I have tar and gunzip.

My question is: does it exist a documentation on the web that could help 
me to configure GNU gcc for my Windows system?

In the '90 years, I was still sighted and was the one who installed gcc 
on a Unix system from the MIT site.

Can you help me?

Thanks for any information.

Pierre Gaumond

You might be better off asking the cygwin team to update their package to
the latest.

The mingw-w64 gcc 10.2 cross compilers are available under the Cygwin 
test versions.
