Hi all,
I'm trying to code some basic c++ on atom ide or notepad++. I followed some tutorials on youtube and I downloaded the mingw c++ compiler and it has installed properly (I think) and I've added it to my variable path, in my laptop, with my administrator account.
However, I'm trying to run a "Hello World!" example, but my cmd line errors and and says, "access is denied." I have tried to allow full control to my own user account, but when I get to the widows dialog box, it's greyed out. It's like un-editable. So, being the administrator of this laptop, how does the security dialog show everything as being greyed out. I don't understand if I'm the administrator, by default, shouldn't I be allowed to compile and run code? My feeling is that onedrive is messing it up somehow...
any ideas on how to proceed?
thx for any help,
windows 10, 1903
