    Need help with DEV C++

    Before like 2 months I started learning C++ but had to stop, now I'm trying to restart learning, so I downloaded Dev C++ like the site said but when I try to run programs (yes I compile them first, I use the Compile and run button), in the error window it says:
    Line Message
    2 unable to run program file.

    and it can't be a problem in the code, all of them worked when I programmed them 2 months ago, and even if I take an example from the sites tutorial it dosen't work...

    Please help someone... thanks ahead

    Ahh ok, it was pretty exedently, I tried looking for the compiler options or stuff like that so I will look for the problem, so I went to tools --> Compiler options, chose the Directories tab, and then I tried looking the tabs there, I didn't really knew what it meant so I just prest OK but it told me that I didn't enter a Binary Directory (or something like that, don't remember) so I went to the Binaries tab and I saw it was empty, so I added a new directory to the binary tab, and chose in it the folder: "bin"... =\ and it worked
