    First project fail, help?

    First project not even working, making me horribly discouraged from learning C++ . Is there a fix for the blue highlighted error?

    Sounds like a permission error; not a programming language error.
    Make sure to run Code::Blocks as admin or store the project somewhere (like my documents) where you have write privileges.

    Well, in your image, you get only one error. Feel free to post the build log when you get these 6 errors. It would help in understanding what is going awry.

    OP earlier today made a thread about problems with his compiler here: New to C++, need help which he conveniently abandoned and decided to keep programming with a broken compiler.

    Sure if following you is reading the forum page. Anyway, you should address the other problem you posted about.

    It's hard for me to explain this properly but if HelloWorld and SayHello are actually stored in the same directory than you have to clean one project before you can compile the other.
