Hi, I don't know if you can reset the default without recompiling gcc - I suspect you can't, but others might know better.
Closest I can get to satisfying your spec is to create a batch file called "gcc.bat" that contains the following 2 lines: @echo off C:/_64/gcc-mingw-810/mingw64/bin/gcc.exe --sysroot=C:/_64/gcc-mingw-810/mingw64 %* Then place that file so that it is found in the path *before* gcc.exe. When I do that, I get: C:\_64>gcc --print-sysroot C:/_64/gcc-mingw-810/mingw64 If I remove that "gcc.bat" file, I get (like you): C:\_64>gcc --print-sysroot C:/mingw810/x86_64-810-posix-seh-rt_v6-rev0/mingw64 HTH.
