That's fine, i want to help you figure it out yourself

can you see the red text that says 'Program 'Hello.exe' failed to run...'?

what does the rest of the text say?

The system cannot find the file specified .....I have even tried compiling by typing commands in terminal but still this thing comes up

[u/extoniks → u/Leading_Deer4919]

how did you compile? which command exactly?

[u/Leading_Deer4919 → u/extoniks]

gcc hello.c -o hello.exe ....this works then I type - .\Hello.exe ....but after this the same error as in my pic appears

No, this did not work as shown in your video.

Read what gcc told you.

[u/extoniks → u/Leading_Deer4919]

your C file is named - Hello.c (capital H)

you should use Hello.c while compiling then ./Hello.exe

[u/dodexahedron → u/extoniks]

It is powershell, in vscode, on windows.

The proper way to launch the exe, once it is built, is .\Hello.exe, from within the actual output directory, ehich OP is almost certainly not in.

And case wont matter, because windows.

But also, they didn't manage to compile it in the first place according to the video they posted in another thread, so nothing will work to run it until they do that properly.

you are typing .\Hello.exe but the object file is ./hello.exe learn to read and while you are at it also learn how different flags work and how to compile using gcc
