When I run a Windows console project the console window closes immediately and does not wait for keypress. This is with version 12.11. With version 10.05 (which I had before) it did wait. My Project settings for console is "Pause when execution ends" ticket.
I did install the latest MinGW (outside CB), but I dont think its the problem because I put back the original C::B MinGW folder and had the same problem.
