The only supported binary distribution for MS-Windows systems
is that provided by Eli Zaretskii's @uref{https://sourceforge.net/projects/ezwinports/,
``ezwinports''} project. Install the compiled @command{gawk} from there.
+Note that to run that port, you need to have the
+@file{libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll} file installed on your system. This file is
+part of the GCC distribution, and should reside either in the same
+directory where you install @file{gawk.exe} or somewhere on your
+system's @env{Path}. You can download this file from @uref{the MinGW
+site, https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/releases}; look under the
+``MinGW.org Compiler Collection (GCC)'' for the @code{LibGCC-1.DLL}
+download.
