I hope someone is willing to reply to my question, even though they sound not 
very smart, the truth is that I am trying to understand the different aspects 
of MinGW64, I am really confused about how it works.

Thanks in advance

D:\MinGW64
   +bin
      -i686-w64-mingw32-g++.exe
   +i686-w64-mingw32
      +bin
         -g++.exe
----
What is the difference between './bin/i686-w64-mingw32-g++.exe' and 
'./i686-w64-mingw32/bin/g++.exe'? What are they used for?

TIA

  In the‘/MinGW64’ folder I have  ‘./lib’,  ‘/bin’ and ‘./include’ 
subdirectories, am I to assume that this are the 32-bit files while their 
64-bit counterparts are in the ‘./i686-w64-mingw32’ directory?

No. Depending on what exactly you downloaded (filename of the file you got 
suffices), some stuff will be located in different places.

I'm assuming you have downloaded a 32-bit native non-multilib toolchain, then 
this is the general structure:

mingw32/bin: directory to add to PATH. Contains all the toolchain executables 
like gcc, g++, gdb, ld, nm, etc...

mingw32/lib and mingw32/include: GCC search paths, ignore them.

mingw32/i686-w64-mingw32/include and lib: these are the MinGW-w64 headers and 
import libraries (the stuff built from the source you first downloaded). These 
include some C headers and standard Win32 API headers like windows.h

    Hello there!
    I just downloaded and unpacked mingw-w64-v1.0.7. in my D: directory, what 
else do I have to do now? is there a tutorial explaining what has to be added 
to the path and what is the toolchain for 32bit or 64bit apps?

  Hi,


  you downloaded the MinGW-w64 runtime source package. You want a prebuilt 
binary package i seems. See here for instructions:
  http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/mingw-w64/wiki/GeneralUsageInstructions


  If you need any more help, feel free to ask.


  Ruben



    TIA
