My problem is that in Windows, I can no longer debug a program. It worked before, I think I fixed it, something perhaps to do with paths with spaces, now its not working. First I re-installed 20.03 CodeBlocks, then I tried just the hello world command line example as follows.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello world!\n");
return 0;
}
If I set a breakpoint on the printf and start debugging I get the following in the debug window

Debugger finished with status 1
And after a couple of seconds it throws the "Debugger Finished with status 1" no matter what I try to do. Only thing I can think of is something has become corrupt in the configuration files. I have noticed it is a bad idea to try to use a Linux config on windows so now use seperate configs. I have googled this issue but not found an answer!
