Error when compiling with -m32 option (for 32-bit code) using Mingw-w64

I've installed Mingw-w64 using the official installer mingw-w64-install as x86-64/POSIX-threads on Windows 10.

My plan was to use this compiler to compile C/C++ programs for both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures.

Doing some research, I've found that -m32 options should generate 32-bit code. Below is my Visual Studio Code build file:

{
    // See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
    // for the documentation about the tasks.json format
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
        {
            "command": "g++",
            "args": ["HelloWorld.cpp", "-w", "-m32", "-o", "HelloWorld.exe"],
            "label": "build",
            "type": "shell",
        }
    ]
}

Everything works just fine when compiling for 64-bit architecture. However, if I specifiy -m32 option, I get the error shown below:

In particular, ld.exe can't find lstdc++ etc. How do I fix this?
