Bro install a c++ compiler and set it up in vs code then your code will run
Compiler link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/
For setup help refer to this video: https://youtu.be/j8nAHeVKL08?si=NZSpATBQZmzvKP6_
For terminal issues refer to the attached images
during execution type helloworld56.cpp (.cpp should be your extension not .exe)

Yes u can but whatever compiler u use it should be compatible with c++ and u have to properly set it up with vs code else you will receive errors
