I'm having the same issue, and it seems also this repo's nightly build.

The first time I ran this action in my pipeline it passed. So I merged it right in. No build has worked since. I am going to start looking where this is coming from

So I investigated as much as I could. It failed for me on the posix library download from sourceforge. I was able to get a 3rd try build on the runner to successfully download that library. So either this is sourceforge having issues, or there is some sort of rate limit, although I don't know how it would rate limit a github runner. I will keep carrying on, but then might further investigate if they keep failing to download.

tl;dr: Workaround: downgrade from windows-latest to windows-2019

Example: https://github.com/approvals/ApprovalTests.cpp/commit/54b50a6d1136f30053537f9187c3b3c7900efaa7

In https://github.com/approvals/ApprovalTests.cpp/commit/54b50a6d1136f30053537f9187c3b3c7900efaa7 we found that a workaround was to downgrade from windows-latest to windows-2019, and mingw then installed fine via this project.

FWIW, I've found that windows-latest has mingw 11.2 installed (see https://github.com/actions/runner-images/pull/5729), and I was able to remove the setup-mingw@v2 step from my workflow. The only change I had to make was to alias cc to gcc via CC=gcc in my make step.
