The recommended way is to install the Support Package "MATLAB Support for MinGW-w64 C/C++ Compiler". You can install this support package in two ways:

1. In MATLAB, on the "Home" tab, click Add-Ons. In the pop-up window, search for the term "mingw" then click "MATLAB Support for MinGW-w64 C/C++ Compiler". Choose the install option and follow the steps for installation.
2. Go to the following page on MathWorks File Exchange: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/52848-matlab-support-for-mingw-w64-c-c-compiler Click the Download button. This downloads a "mingw.mlpkginstall" file. Double click this file and follow the steps for installation.
