  • The other answers used different sources than Cygwin, which is what I recommend, so I copied my steps here, since I recently needed to document how to work with it. In addition to providing a wealth of Windows utilities, Cygwin is well maintained. Additionally, Cygwin assists when needed to fix vulnerabilities by allowing you to easily update versions as needed.
