Copy libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll and paste it into the same folder as your executable.
This will slightly increase your executable's file size but ensures it runs on any machine without extra DLLs. MinGW32 packages are linked with LIBGCC_S_DW2-1.DLL
You can resolve this issue using one of the three methods below, depending on whether you are the developer or an end-user. 1. The "Quick Fix": Copy the DLL to the App Folder
If you are compiling the code and want to prevent users from needing this DLL, you can link the library so it is embedded directly into your .exe . Add the following flags to your linker options : -static-libgcc (for C programs) -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ (for C++ programs)
