 Here are the steps for building in release mode with a single-configuration
 generator, like the Unix Makefiles one:

 ```sh
 cmake -S . -B build -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
 cmake --build build
 ```
 
-Here are the steps for building in release mode with a multi-configuration
-generator, like the Visual Studio ones:
+### Building with MSVC / Windows
+
+MSVC is not supported because it has an outdated C++ compiler. Use Mingw64 to build.
+
+### Building with MinGW / Windows
+
+- Download cmake and generate a mingw make file.
+- Install or download marisa-trie package.
+
+Use MinGW to build it. After generating build directory enter it and execute
 
 ```sh
-cmake -S . -B build
-cmake --build build --config Release
+pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-marisa
+cd build
+mingw32-make.exe make
+mingw32-make.exe make install
 ```
 
-### Building with MSVC
+Or use Cmake.
 
-Note that MSVC by default is not standards compliant and you need to pass some
-flags to make it behave properly. See the `flags-windows` preset in the
-[CMakePresets.json](CMakePresets.json) file for the flags and with what
-variable to provide them to CMake during configuration.
+```sh
+pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-marisa
+cmake -S . -B build
+```

+
+>Q: Still doesn't work!!!
+>A: Download [Installer][3] here.
+
+>Q: Where should I install it!!!
+>A: Into Goldendict-ng root directory. Don't forget about "marisa_words.dic"
 
 ### Building on Apple Silicon
 
 CMake supports building on Apple Silicon properly since 3.20.1. Make sure you
 have the [latest version][1] installed.
 
+#FIXME Mac Support Instructions
+
+Building on Apple devices is not supported yet. But you can try.
