    Complining & Running problem

    Hello.
    Just yesterday I started looking into C++ programming. I tried to run a code just to be sure that I understand the whole compiling/running/linking/executing things. So I followed this guide. Everything went well until I clicked F9. Instead of an "Hello World" message appearing on my screen nothing happened. Does anyone has any idea why is that?

    Many thanks.

    Have you tried commencing the build through the menu instead?
    Can you see the error output/messages window at the bottom? If not, try checking the menu item for it. Then try building, the reason for the failure will be posted in that little window.

    Thanks very much for the quick reply however the problem seemed so obvious I didn't even think about it. While installing I changed MinGW's path and completely forgot about it. My apologies. Thanks anyway!
