You are most likely using an Old version on MinGW; but since you have no knowledge of it; this is just a guess based on the other newbies.

Find the compiler installation folder?
Open an CMD.exe window and cd to the compiler installation folder

--- Code: ---cd /d C:\Mingw
--- End code ---
Then cd to the bin sub folder

--- Code: ---cd bin
--- End code ---
The run gcc -v to get the version

--- Code: ---gcc -v
--- End code ---
Then run g++ to get version and verify the file exists.

--- Code: ---g++ -v
--- End code ---

Report both version numbers or the errors!

Did you install a compiler?
If no, install one.
If yes, then USE the path of the compiler you installed!!!

No, use the path to where it is installed!

No, I give up you need a person on site to help you type commands.

You should ask a person, on site, who knows the basics to help you find the problem.

If you can not CD to a folder you are not a person that can be help without more effort than I have time to give.
