so i put back minGW on code blocks folder but the problem persist:  if i right click for ex #include <stdio.h>  and choose Open include file i get a not found error, the tooltip wich appears when you hover your cursor over a function , variable etc.. is also lost.

Ensure that the old mingw is correctly removed from the %PATH% environment variable.
Verify that you have set the good path in compiler's options.

It should be ok after that.

environment variable is set in windows system in Path section as: C:\MinGW\bin

Verify that you have set the good path in compiler's options.
is this the path to set in toolchain executable? it is set to C:\MinGW  and programs do compile.

So It's a bug because i made the cb+minGW install and the problem was gone , btw cb does not set environment variable in windows.
