Follow the official tutorial.

"There are multiple variants of GCC for Windows, which are incompatible with each other (different exception management, threading model, etc.). Make sure you select the package which corresponds to the version that you use. If you are unsure, check which of the libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll or libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll files is present in your MinGW/bin folder. If MinGW was installed along with Code::Blocks, you probably have an SJLJ version."
What to do if I have both
DLLs when I installed it along codeblocks

It's more important to check the compiler version (e.g. gcc -v). For Code:: Blocks you want the TDM 32-bits version.

Alternatively, you can just build SFML with your specific compiler and then it will work just fine.

Now in using tdm 32 bits version. Now I get the error sfml-d-2.dll was not found. Re installing the application may fix the problem
