Is there any way to get Mingw-w64's gcc to output a 32-bit executable file on a 64-bit Windows machine without reinstalling?

Question

As the title suggests, I need a way to create a 32-bit executable file on my 64-bit machine. I tried using the -m32 option, but the compiler just gave up and spitted out a lot of errors. (Error text below for those who are interested) A solution I read requires using Linux, so that isn't an option for me. The only possible way I've found is to reinstall Mingw-w64, either the multilib version or use the SJLJ exception model when installing with the online installer this time.

So, does any of the above solutions work? Should I use it then? If no, what should I do instead? Thanks in advance.

Error text the compiler returned when I used the -m32 option:

Reinstalling is the easiest option. While you're at it, I suggest switching to https://www.msys2.org/ which provides both x32 and x64 gcc, and a more recent version than the one you have. — HolyBlackCat, Aug 23 '21 at 13:32
@HolyBlackCat Thanks for the suggestion! I noticed that MSYS2 provides the most recent version of gcc when I looked at the installation page before, but I went with the online installer anyway because it seems like more people choose that haha. I guess I have more reasons to use this now :). Will update my post if this turns out to be the best solution. — throwaway924994288, Aug 23 '21 at 14:05

No. Those are different compilers. They output different binary formats. The -m32 option only does anything useful on arm or certain embedded processors.

Is there any way to get Mingw-w64's gcc to output a 32-bit executable file on a 64-bit Windows machine without reinstalling?
