[Boost-users] Windows installation issues

Hi all, after having switched from OSX and Linux to Windows 10 I have issues compiling boost (1.61)with the MinGW compiler. The very first step fails: bootstrap.bat mingw results in not finding a right path, denying access and aborting the installation. So far I only found this article: https://andres.jaimes.net/698/use-c-with-mingw-and-netbeans-in-windows/ but it does not contain further info how (and where) to add additional info (I added c:\MinGW\bin to my PATH but it didn’t help). Any help appreciated, thanks in advance Alex --
