I've just fresh installed code blocks 12.11 on my windows 7(x64) OS and tried to launch simple hello world program but no output is produced in console window. I checked compiler path and it looks good. When I first started code blocks window pop-up in the right low corner saying environment error and something about path variable missing. I simply don't know whats wrong. I have use code blocks before and never got errors like this.
Here is image of program execution:
I forgot to mention that there is no .exe file in my project's folder...it's sometimes there but when I double click on it it disappears.
I have just tried to make cpp hello world console app and it works just fine. So the problem is only with c projects. If this is helpful
When you try to build your hello world in C, what happens? The screenshot seems to indicate that no files were compiled, which may be a problem. (If there's a timestamp check, just make a little change to your .c file and save.)
Read this link FAQ-Compiling (errors) - CodeBlocks
Do a Re-Build; Do NOT do a run.
What does the Build Log say?

Build log:
Somewhere you told CB to run the wrong file.
Project -> "Set Program Arguments" is the spot I know about that does this; but, there may be others.
Another place to verify the settings is.
Project -> Properties
Tab "Build Targets"
Check the Text Boxes called "Output Filename", "Execution Working Dir" for all targets in the left column.

I am not sure that i told CB to run the wrong file, because i just fresh installed CB and, as part of habit, when created project i didn't start programming anything i just clicked to build and run(hello world) and it didn't produce any output. And there was Environment error as I mentioned in first post. I reinstalled CB and same thing again.
The screenshot you just posted says the output is "helo.exe". The screenshot you posted very first thing in the thread was running "ptr.exe". Poke around and see if you see that name anywhere.
I know. Sorry for misunderstanding. When I uninstalled CB I also deleted all projects, and now created new project called helo. But the problem is same. I have to mention that I used CB before and I didn't have any problem with it. Now I installed it and this s**t happens. I simply don't know what's wrong. This is first time that i installed CB after reinstalling windows. Until today I only used eclipse for java applications.
This is likely your Anti Virus software.
I suggest learning to cut and paste code on this and other support sites.

You are very right. I just closed my antivirus an it's working. But how did you know it? I have to know after almost 10 hours of searching for solution.Originally Posted by stahta01
It's probably being caused because of the directory you're trying to use. Try creating a directory off your "My Documents" directory for your projects instead of the Desktop directory. Many anti-virus programs consider files changing, except is certain directories, as possible viruses and quarantine them.

Its in the Code::Blocks FAQs. Not under that symptom; but, what you said an exe disappeared is a common thing with AV software.

You might want to white-list your development directories in your AV s/w, so it knows to leave them alone and trust them explicitly.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
