I have a BIG problem!! please help!

ok, I just installed Bledshed's dev-C++. I open it and then go to source and enter this:

#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
cout << "Hello World" << endl;
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}

and it says I have an error!! It says "Unable to run program file" and I go to "compile log" and it says 1 error, then right by that under "compile log" it says
"Compiler: Default compiler
Executing g++.exe...
g++.exe "C:\Dev-Cpp\Hello.cpp" -o "C:\Dev-Cpp\Hello.exe" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp" -L"C:\Dev-Cpp\lib"
Execution terminated".

So then I tryed it at my friends house and it works fine! I don't get it! someone help me out please. Thanks!

You need to install g++. And if it is installed, it needs to be in your path or in a directory already in your path.

where can I download it?

Hello,

There are a couple of reasons why Dev-C++ gives this error.

First things first, you can download g++ for Windows here. Though, in fact, you may already have it.

Secondly, with a in-depth Google search I found the following information:

About the "unable to run program file" problem with Dev-C++: I had the same problem when I installed a modified version of Dev-C++ with a wxWidgets framework included. I installed it in "C:\dev-cpp\dev-cpp" instead of "C:\dev-cpp" only. I uninstalled the program and reinstalled it in the correct folder "C:\dev-cpp". From that moment I was unable to use Dev-C++, even if I removed and reinstalled it a lot of times.

The trick is that Dev-C++ puts 2 files in "C:\documents and settings\<your username>\local settings\application data\". These files are "devcpp.cfg" and "devcpp.ini". Remove Dev-C++, delete these files and reinstall Dev-C++. All should work again.

I uninstalled it and re-installed it and it still won't work.

EDIT: That fixed it! Thanks man!!!!! :D
