Can you help me installing MinGW?

When I try to install MinGW I get this error message:

mingw-get: *** ERROR *** C:\MinGW\libexec\mingw-get\mingw-get-0.dll: DLL load failed; cannot run setup hooks
mingw-get: *** ERROR *** setup: unable to continue

I have no idea what should I do, I just wanted to start learning C... can you help solve this problem?

I deleted all files in C:\MinGW\var\cache\mingw-get\packages and install WinGW again and it worked.

I solved this problem by deleting the MinGW folder from my C: drive completely and rerunning the installer executable.
