I'm not able to compile my code. The Compile Log shows the following error,

Compiler: Default compiler
Executing gcc.exe...
gcc.exe "C:\Users\uddie\Documents\myname.c" -o "C:\Users\uddie\Documents\myname.exe" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include" -L"C:\Dev-Cpp\lib"
gcc.exe: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory

Execution terminated

I reinstalled it 3 times after but still i get the same error. Does anyone know how to fix this? I installed it in windows vista os.

    I do not really know if this will help and I am fairly new at this whole Dev tools thing, but are you running Vista of an older version of Window, b/c i would guess that 4.9.9.2 is the beta version for Vista, and you would probably want to dl an older version of Dev C++ if you are running a older version of Windows. Again I am no expert, and you would probably know more about the situation, but that is my take on the matter.

    copy cc1.exe to somewhere else and then add the new path to compiler options. worked to me.

      This error usually occurs when the GCC installation is incomplete or the compiler cannot find the required cc1.exe file. Try reinstalling MinGW/Dev-C++, verify that all compiler files are installed correctly, and check that the compiler paths are configured properly in the IDE settings. Missing or incorrect PATH entries can also cause this issue. for more details
