    Do you have created a project ?
    Your simple program is incomplete. You want
    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    int main(void)
    {
       printf("sa\n");
       return 0;
    }
    to have a correct and portable C program, and probably
    Code:
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    int main(void)
    {
       printf("sa\n");
    
       system ("pause");
       return 0;
    }
    if you want to see its effect on the console. When ready, press F9 to compile and execute.

      cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
      cout << "Press ENTER to continue..." << endl;

    I don't see a create button. Hit f9 to compile and run, as Emmanuel said. Make sure it's fully updated, too(4.9.9.9)

    It's probably because you have not created a project.

    From scratch

    - Launch Dev-C++
    - File / New / Project

    Select Console
    Select C project
    Tick Default language

    Replace 'Project1' by a name of yours

    Click OK

    Save the project (give a name)

    Now, you have a main.c like that:
    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    
    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
      
      system("PAUSE");	
      return 0;
    }
    Press F9

    Save main.c (at the same place than the project file for a start)

    A DOS window must display:
    Code:
    Appuyez sur une touche pour continuer . . .
    More likely
    Code:
    Press a key to continue . . .
    on your machine.

    If this doesn't work, the installation is bad.
    Uninstall / reinstall.
