Title: Code Block 13.12 note working properly in windows 8.1 Pro ?
Post by: 22990atinesh on April 03, 2014, 05:59:05 am

I've installed "codeblocks-13.12 mingw-setup.exe" by downloading it from Code Block's official website. But when I write any program and Run it, then nothing happens. On startup after every fresh installation, I get this error message

And what's the difference between these 3 setup files

1. codeblocks-13.12-setup.exe
2. codeblocks-13.12mingw-setup.exe
3. codeblocks-13.12mingw-setup-TDM-GCC-481.exe

Which one should I use.

Choose 2 and 3 also have a MinGW GCC compiler installation as part of the download.
I think 2 is TDM GCC version 4.7.1

Code::Blocks choice 1 does NOT have a compiler as part of the download.
Code::Blocks by itself is just a editor/IDE it needs a installed compiler to do most things.

Did you install the MinGW compiler?
If installed by the CB installer there should be a MinGW folder under the CB program folder.

Hello Tims S.
I've installed this setup "codeblocks-13.12mingw-setup.exe". Why It doesn't run any program, How can I resolve this issue.

I think the problem is resolved, I followed these steps from other posts and now it works fine
1) Go to settings in the upper part
2) Click compiler
3) Choose reset to defaults.
