MinGW 32-bit seems missing from recent images

Closed this issue 3 months ago · 4 comments

On the pre-installed software page, MinGW 32-bit is listed as installed. However, it looks like it is either not installed or not installed where advertised.

Snippet:

install:
  - cmd: |
      cd C:\MinGW

This gives: The system cannot find the path specified.

Are you subscribed to technical updates? Removal of MinGW 32-bit was announced in a newsletter from December last year.

Afraid not. I checked the release history for Windows images and couldn't find it there that quickly.
IN any case, I think it would help to have it reflected on the supported software page.

Apologies, you're right. The documentation has now been remedied to reflect this change.
