Me, I would uninstall the MinGW in that folder. And then, setup CB to use a different MinGW this might require installing another MinGW installation.
NOTE: CB did NOT install MinGW in that folder!
So, uninstalling and re-installing CB will NOT fix the problem!!!!!

So I uninstalled mingw and downloaded the file from this link (This is only thing I downloaded)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Base/gcc/Version4/gcc-4.7.2-1/
Ran a new project, I clicked ReBuild, and this comes up at the bottom, which is new
When I click over to Build Log it displays this
BlueHazzard:
your compiler installation is a mess...
i would recommend you to uninstall all:
mingw
codeblocks
then search for "mingw" and delete all folders with this name (especially the folder c:\Mingw)
delete the MingW entry of your PATH environment variable:
http://www.7tutorials.com/simple-questions-what-are-environment-variables
and
http://www.7tutorials.com/how-edit-or-delete-environment-variables-windows-7-windows-8
!!! Warning !!! only edit the PATH variable, dont delete it. Push the "edit" button, search for the part with the Mingw path and delete the part between the two ";"
then download http://sourceforge.net/projects/codeblocks/files/Binaries/12.11/Windows/codeblocks-12.11mingw-setup.exe/download
and install it...
this c::b installer comes with a mingw installation...
greetings

I uninstalled and deleted everything. THen I did the environment thing. This is what came up, I don't see a MinGW entry or anything like that so I assume it's fine. Here is a pic in case you wanted to see
Currently working on the download of C:B. 95.9 MB. I'm at 4 so far lol

I installed it and there was a little popup in the bottom right corner of the program which read "Can't find compiler executable for GNU GCC Compiler" or something like that. I haven't figured out how to get the popups/error messages to display.
I just did a rebuild now, after seeing that message. This is the build log
--- Code: ---"lkjk - Debug": The compiler's setup (GNU GCC Compiler) is invalid, so Code::Blocks cannot find/run the compiler.
Probably the toolchain path within the compiler options is not setup correctly?!
Goto "Settings->Compiler and debugger...->Global compiler settings->GNU GCC Compiler->Toolchain executables" and fix the compiler's setup.
Skipping...
Nothing to be done (all items are up-to-date).
--- End code ---
I'm leaving now to go to the store, but I assume I just need to fix the path like it says? When I go to settings, there is no "Compiler and debugger" option. There is only "Compiler" and "Debugger", two seperate entities.
Screw it, I didn't wanna waste time. Ok so I went to where it said, and it had installation path at C:/MinGW, so I changed it to code blocks > MinGW and it worked! I got a rebuild successful, then I did buld and run and got hello world!
Thanks a lot everyone, it seems like it is working. You all are very patient with me. I can't thank you enough
