MinGW

Step 2: Installer

Get the installer which will be downloaded when you run the mingw setup.
Select the mingw basic and mingw gcc compiler

After you are done with this... Click Installation on the top left and select update catalogue which will ask you review changes and accept them. When it finishes, your MinGW installation is complete except the part of "Path Setting"

Step 2: Getting MinGW (alternate way)

There is an other way to get the MinGW files. Click on the link given below and download the files. Paste them to your default installation disk (For example, my default drive is C).
Then Proceed to the next step.

Step 3: Setting path for MinGW

After the installation you will find the bin files in the directory where the MinGW was installed. Goto "installation path":\bin folder and then right click on any of the files there to see its properties. Copy the location of it. Now follow these steps.















Step 3a:

Go to properties of your computer and there to Advanced System Settings. Select Environment variables.












Step 3b:

In those variables, under System variables find the variable with the name "Path". Select it and click Edit.



















Step 3c:

Now paste the location you've copied in a new entry field. Accept the changes.


   














                 And that's it. This finishes the installation of MinGW.

Hi guys . . . This is a short tutorial about setting automatic Shutdown without the need for any third party software/tool. Let's get into it. It can be done in two ways . . .  Method 1 Using CMD Open CMD and type the following code into it shutdown -s -t 1000 (The number 1000 is 1000 milliseconds. Change it depending on the amount of time you want the system to be on.) If you want to abort this automatic shutdown then type the following code into the prompt shutdown -a (This aborts the automatic shutdown which has been initiated from the previous command.) Method 2 Using a batch file Batch files are generally used to execute a set of commands on launching them. In order to create a batch file for automatic shutdown, open Notepad. Type the following code into it. shutdown -s -t 1000 (The number 1000 is 1000 seconds. Change it depending on the amount of time you want the system to be on.) If you want to abort...
