I have MinGW but it did not come with GDB. This page is particularly unhelpful for getting GDB.

Bob the Hamster (talk) 11:13, 1 June 2017 (PDT): Yikes! This page is in the top 5 results on google for searching "gdb for windows", no wonder people have been mistaking it for a documentation/download source. Unfortunately I have no idea why gdb is no longer included in MinGW. It was certainly in there back when this article was written (2011 or older?) Maybe try https://www.cygwin.com/ instead? I don't know what else to suggest.

Bob the Hamster (talk) 10:29, 12 June 2017 (PDT): Okay, so here is what you do. After installing MinGW, run the "MinGW Installation Manager" (which for me was located in C:\MinGW\libexec\mingw-get\guimain.exe ) and then make sure that the mingw32-gdb bin package is installed.
