Try to install the latest Modelsim Intel FPGA Edition in the link here: Version 2021.1. (Quartus 21.2)
You should see the gcc-4.2.1-mingw32vc12 at the folder directory here.

i did not try this modelsim that comes with quartus because we use the questasim directly from mentor, as rest of our testbenches are not built around quartus ips.
Is there a major difference between these two?

Questa*-Intel® FPGA Edition software only supports Intel’s (Quartus) simulation libraries, whereas Questa* Core can support any simulation libraries. The Questa*-Intel® FPGA Edition software includes all the features of Siemens EDA Questa* Core, including behavioral simulation, HDL test benches, and Tcl scripting.
However, features specific to Questa* Prime are not supported in the Questa*-Intel® FPGA Edition software. Questa*-Intel® FPGA Edition software is slower than the Siemens EDA Questa* Core and Questa* Prime software.
