I installed Code::blocks using default setup; When I try to start it for C, I get an error message that it can't find a path to GNU GCC compiler. Any suggestions?

OS? Which package have you installed? Have you installed a compiler?

I assumed Code::Blocks would install a compiler as part of the IDE

It depends. There are installers which have a compiler and installers which don't have compiler. Which one have you used?

I used codeblocks 17.12 setup. does it include a compiler? If not, can you recommend a version that does? Thanks for your help!

everything is written in this page :
http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/26
from where you have probably downloaded your version.
take a little time to read everything.

AAARRRG! This time I installed "codeblocks-17.12mingw-setup" or C in Win 10, and I still get an error message it can't find the compiler
Any suggestions?

Goto the compiler settings select the GCC compiler and find the auto-detect button and try to see if it helps. If it doesn't help search the wiki for instructions how to setup a compiler.

Sorry for being dense, but I've selected the Gnu GCC compiler and don't see an "auto detect" button:(

It is on the toolchain executables tab. If you don't see it press the right arrow or resize the dialog.
If you still cannot find it - search the wiki...
