in reply to Errors While Installing Image::Magick

I looked at it again, and it seems like gcc is installed and it's working, but there is a misconfiguration somewhere.

Yes, but what if gcc is not in the PATH ? Open Command Prompt and type in GCC and see what happens or type in "SET PATH" and see what it says. The system PATH environment variable can be modified in the Control Panel >> System >> Advanced >> Environment Variables. Wait, did you say you have Windows 10? I just gave you instructions for Windows XP. Well, I think, Windows 10 is similar. The "Advanced" is a tab in Windows XP, but I think, it appears as a link on the left side in Windows 10.. If you get GCC working but it's still won't work as desired, I'm afraid you might have to reinstall Strawberry Perl. :/

      Any updates on this?

      I am having a hard time installing ImageMagick too.

      Installed 7.1.2 (64-bit) from IM website with all options (dev, legacy, etc.).

      Strawberry Perl 64-bit 5.32.1.

      Everytime I run `cpan install Image::Magick` it fails with:

      "error ImageMagick was build with a 64 channel bit mask and that requires a C++ compiler"

      Yet `gcc --version` yields:

      "gcc (x86_64-posix-seh, Built by strawberryperl.com project) 8.3.0"
