Clion with MinGW not compiling simple Hello World app

I have trouble in compiling a simple hello world application with CLion and MinGW. The buttons for Run and Debug are grayd out.

I have installed MinGW with mingw32-gcc-g++ and mingw32-make packages. mingw32-gcc-g++

After that I have install CLion which detected automatically the right folder for MinGW. However make, c compiler and c++ compiler will not get the checkmark.

ToolChain

Also in CMakeError.log file found the following:

The output was:

I am unable to figure out. I have tried also with cygwin x64 and the same issue occurs. What is wrong?

After so much time spent without any clue, I found that actually the crashing softwares were cc1.exe and cc1plus.exe. After using Dependency Waker tool which led mo to manually adding the zlib1.dll file near these two crashing exe, I found that the real reason was that package mingw32-libz was not installed. I have installed mingw32-libz package in MinGW and removed manually added dlls and I get all checkmarks in settings.
