This version of grep has been compiled for Windows with MinGW-w64
(https://www.mingw-w64.org) and msys2 (https://msys2.org)

essential parts of the contents of grep-3.11-win64.zip:

grep-3.11\README.txt (this file)
grep-3.11\bin\grep.exe (binary file of grep)
grep-3.11\bin\libiconv-2.dll

Recommandation for installation: put grep.exe and the .dll files into a
folder included in the list of folders assigned to the PATH environment
variable, so that you can use the software in a terminal (e.g. Windows
Terminal), or (better) put .exe into the folder c:\grep-3.11\bin and add
"c:\grep-3.11\bin" to the PATH environment variable.

For details see the documentation in grep.1.html and the manual available
at https://www.gnu.org/software/grep/manual/. The sourcecode for grep is
available at ftp.gnu.org.

The executable file grep.exe (together with the .dll library files) in
this archive is a 64-bit application. This compiled application is made
available without any warranty. No support is provided for this compiled
software. Information on problems, however, is always welcome.
