Permission denied @ rb_file_s_symlink when installing libv8 via gem?

Question

Ruby on Rails

When I try to install libv8 I get this:

C:\Ruby24-x64\msys64\mingw64\bin>gem install libv8
Temporarily enhancing PATH for MSYS/MINGW...
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES)

When trying to install therubyracer this:

I just started learning Ruby from YouTube video tutorials, I seem to be doing everything one-on-one, but here is such an ambush. Tell me what to do?

Answer 1

Do not use Windows as many gems are not compatible with it.

Answer 2

`Failed to build gem native extension` - to build gems supplied in the source, you need a compiler, libraries, toolchain, etc... It seems that all this could be configured under Windows, google
The second way is a virtual machine with Linux
