linking with `x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc` failed: exit code: 1

[KartikeyBartwal]

Not even building a fresh project. Yes VS desktop C++ has been installed and been added to path variables. Also mingw64 has been installed and that too has been added to the path variable

Error:

I would be recommended you use WSL2 instead of native windows to development in rust. since wsl is support systemd, means you can install container engine like docker and vscode give you wsl extesion too, or you can use neovim. there should be no reason for development rust using native windows except you want to targeting windows platform.

I use wsl for daily development with rust and it's just works fine.

What toolchain precisely did you install? The error looks like you are using a toolchain with win32 threads.
