Even after I erase all the code on-screen and start building a program and try to run it, it always runs the basic "Hello World" program. What am I doing wrong? I'm a beginner and am trying to follow a tutorial on learning C++ but I can't progress while Code::Blocks doesn't work for me. Help please!

Tell us what is the steps you do? We need more detailed information.

I open Code::Blocks, start a new console application, and then erase the parts of the code that make it type "Hello World," then I copy code from the tutorial exactly as it is on the video, but when I run it it still types "Hello World" as if I've done nothing to it at all.
-
Try compiling the new code.
Note: You may have to save it first.

OK, so does the tutorial forget to tell you that you need to build the application before run it?

I do that, I save it, and then press "build and run." I've also tried building then running seperately. I get the same result.

Maybe, you can have a look at:

and show us the full log message.

Try using rebuild; the run erases the build log.
Which likely is full of errors.
