Try these (they worked for me): /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL [LINK] )" brew install mingw-w64 Please save your code before running. For reference refer to this video [this video]

I was trying to install mingw-w64 with homebrew to use C++ on my Macbook (intel chip). I followed a tutorial I found on youtube: [this video] Everything was going well until the terminal won't show up anything about the installation. It was at this specific point when I was installing homebrew: ==> Tapping homebrew/core remote: Enumerating objects: 1148169, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (7/7), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (7/7), done. remote: Total 1148169 (delta 2), reused 3 (delta 0), pack-reused 1148162 Receiving objects: 100% (1148169/1148169), 455.12 MiB | 5.71 MiB/s, done.

Cites Glowing_glasses · 2022-03 · Stack Overflow · on “Why is my VScode C compiler not working like it used to?”
I have been learning C for a month now and I've been using VScode on mac to do it. I followed the following video(i.e by installing homebrew and mingw and installing extentions in VScode) and it ran exactly as shown in the video. video----> [this video] i.e it automatically opened a .json file after debugging. I went to my class in the morning and it ran fine, but when I reached home and tried to run a program, it did not compile. I used to f5(shortcut to debug) and a drop down menu popped which had GDB/LLDB and Microsoft. I used to click the GDB and it opened a .json file. I then ran the program and it would normally run in the terminal. But this time, there was a second popup after clicking GDB
