have you installed a compiler?
what operating system are you using?

Ok in order, what i've done :

-install codeblocks-16.01mingw-setup.exe (86.6 MO)
-try to change in toolchain executables the Compiler's installation directory with the auto-detect. It did'nt work so i search on google and i try to change in toolchain executables the Compiler's installation directory by C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW and it did'nt work to.
-So uninstall and install codeblocks-16.01-setup.exe (32.9MO) and a compiler tdm64-gcc-5.1.0-2. In the toolchain executables put C:\TDM-GCC-64 and it did'nt work to...


I use Windows 10

So what can i do now ?

Thanks you

The way you described is correct and it should work... I have no idea how i can help you future...
Have you tried to set the Path to the bin sub folder?
If you select the path to the compiler by yourself don't hit the autodetect button again!!
If you use tdm64-gcc do the executables have a other name then in the settings? You can try to select every tool in the compiler settings by hand...

Have you installed a anti virus program? Can you try to deactivate it?
