I'm trying to write and test code on any IDE but I keep getting the same error that "g++ is not recognized as an internal or external command". I looked this up and found that I need to install MinGW to run my code. I try to install it and it will not work, I'll include screenshots of what I'm experiencing. Is there something I'm missing?

I have Malwarebytes, but even when I close it, I get the same error. I'm running on 64 bit. I did download from that link.
I don't really know how to go about the installation setup, these settings don't make sense to me and I've been trying the default options. I'll attach a screenshot of what they are.

Is there any installer within the folder?
If the site doesn’t offer any further suggestions then unfortunately I’m out of options.
