Help, I had a problem while compiling a files (c files), cmd always pop up when I clicked enter, and then keep pop up randomly.
So basically, I can't compile anything.

Hello. First off thank you for this; I'm grateful and impressed to see programming folks explaining this for us laymen. Secondly, I just downloaded and installed GCC this afternoon so I can begin trying to do this... and I have a little hiccup I want to ask about:

I am at 1:16. I just typed as suggested and instead of it exporting a new C program, I have received an error message saying: "'Code\C'' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

For context, I have an external hard drive. My C-Drive has almost no space and is overflowing, so I have taken to installing things on my external- it's in the G drive- including the GCC packet when it prompted me, and the "Hello World" .c file I typed.

I pulled up Command Prompt; got the default line C:\Users\(myname)>; I typed G and then the folder path; and then get the error message when I try to compile the program.

---

I realize this comment's a bit disorganized, but that's exactly because I'm floundering and have only a vague idea what could be wrong. Is it because it's installed in the G Drive or is something else at play here?

[naurseakart]

' scanf() ' doesn't run in VScode(its delaying more than expected) but it ran in cmd.
Does Anyone know about this issue?

How is this helpful to any of you? I know the gcc commands if i get it to install on windows - you ovbiously skipped like a thousand steps. i hate seeing videos like this with comments saying " thanks so awesome!" when nothing is awesome just makes everything more irritating.
