Hi Jean-Pierre,

Run the setup-x86_64.exe program again, and search for the gcc-fortran package. The current stable version should be 13.4.0-1. If you install it, there should be a gfortran.exe in your \cygwin\bin directory. That is the gcc fortran compiler driver.

The list of files is here: https://cygwin.com/packages/x86_64/gcc-fortran/gcc-fortran-13.4.0-1
