'Problem with setting up Mingw w64 for C++. Possible conflict with existing Anaconda/Jupyter?
While I am setting up MinGW-W64 (from sourceforge) exe file (for Windows 10) for C++, it shows a message that it was not downloaded correctly. My best guess is that I have a Anaconda/Jupyter setup having MinGW-W64, and it is making all the fuss. How to set it up for both C++ (VS Code / Code lite) and Python/Jupyter/Anaconda?

Make sure you don't mix versions in environment variables like PATH.
Maybe your download was bad?
Or you may have an antivirus software preventing the installation...
You could try a standalone MinGW-w64 build from https://winlibs.com/, which doesn't requite installation - just extract the archive and point VSCode to it.
