[Windows 10] Code::Blocks 'mingw setup.exe' downloads, compiler missing!....

<< < (2/2)

I did exactly as you suggested...I went into the path directory, settings/compiler etc...changed the path and bammo...worked like a charm. That was exactly what was wrong. it was looking for the mingw directly off the c: drive. C:/MingW ...so I changed that and you were 100% correct...it fixed the problem and I can not thank you enough BlueHazzard! It was staring me in the face and when you said to go look at that and it was so obvious but I would have continued to overlook it. So I thank you very much.

Well, I spoke too soon. The error that says no compiler found is gone after following your direction...but, now I have another error kicking up. When I start a new project, it asks me to choose the type of project from a template. I'm not sure which one to use. I want to use the standard input output library to do some initial programs for practice. aka <stdio.h> … which one should I choose and what other steps do I need to take after choosing one? I know...basic stuff but, I don't know so it is a bit confusing for me.

Thanks in advance...

Then Console Application is what you need.

sorry for the overly long delay. I just finished a couple of summer courses. I'll try that...console that is.
