I read all the posts, FAQs, etc... y path is c:\asdf and Dev-Cpp 4.9.9.2 is installed in its default path (c:\Dev-Cpp) under Windows XP SP2.
My error it's the same as the other people. It's only appears when I try to compile a project.
In other computer's I installed Dev-Cpp, try to compile and there is no problem. But in this one, I always get this error. I format the computer a month ago and before and after I get the problem
What I should do? I think I have tried everything...
Thank you verymuch.
My compiler log is

Did you follow the advice in the post futher down this page that you claim to have read? Or, looking at the file names and the claim to have (stupidly in my opinion) formatted your computer, are you the same person?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Your log shows that you have a "mixed" installation of Dev, some old, some new. You need to:
(1) Follow the directions in the FAQ for doing a clean uninstall. You MUST fully irradicate all traces of your Dev installation. If you tried this before, you missed something. (Please not there are some very explicit and forceful directions on what to do if you are still having problems after going through this process - do not miss them)
(2) Re-download and install the full version of Dev. Install it where it wants.
(3) In the 4.9.9.2 installation process, there is an option stage that has a window with a bunch of check boxes, almost all of which are checked. Scroll down to the bottom, and there is an option to delete previous configuration files. Check it.

2 I redownload and install again
3 I check the "remove previous configuration files"
And the error is the same.
In this computer I have never been able to compile a project with Windows XP. When I have Windows 98 I compiled many project with any problem, but in Windows XP...
I tried to compile in console using g++ doing:
path=c:\Dev-Cpp\bin\
And in the directory c:\asdf I run:
g++.exe -c main.cpp -o main.o -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.2/include" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/3.4.2/backward" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/3.4.2/mingw32" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/3.4.2" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include"
and I get my main.o.
Why I can do it in this way and not using Dev-Cpp!!
Thanks.

No, you did NOT. As the FAQ section states, if you are still having problems, you should tell us exactly, step by step what you did. It says it QUITE forcefully! It states quite clearly that you should NOT, under any circumstances, respond with "I did what you said". Unfortunately, that is exactly what you did. Here's why that is a problem:
The problem in your case is you are missing something in your uninstall process. There is nothing wrong with that, we ALL miss things (me more than **anyone here). The problem is, to determine what you missed, we need the detail of what you did.
The other thing is, you have to be creative and utterly ruthless in your uninstall process. That means you hunt for, find and delete all Dev associated directories. This is not a mechanical process. For example, a previous intall of Dev that was supposed to go in "Program Files" may have created a directory called "Program". So you have to do what the FAQ says, but you have to go beyond, in terms of searching for vestiges of previous installations.

Yes, my project is in the same directory.
Ok, I think I know where is the error. But I don't know how to fix it.
I told you that I compile and execute simple files, but I get this error when I compile a project.
Both outputs are:
Simple file:

In a project:

rm -f main.o Proyecto1.exe
Ok, ok...
1) I uninstall the program from the uninstaller in c:\Dev-Cpp folder... OK.
2) I find the folder c:\Dev-Cpp. It isn't in C:. OK
3) I do a search for any file that's contains devcpp,dev-cpp. (Cheking the box to find hidden files and folders too).
I obtain only recent files. I delete them.
4) I search in the registry for the same. I delete all the keys containing something about dev-cpp.
5) I redownload Dev-Cpp.
6) I install it cheking "Remove previous configuration files"
7) All is reinstalled!
I think in my case uninstall and install again it's not the problem. Since I reinstalled the operating system I never installed Dev-Cpp. It was the first time. But now it's the second...
Same error....
Anything else?
Thanks.

It's me again.
I've realised that the error I get when I compile a project have to be sent by the operating system... My operating system is in Spanish, and if you see the compile logs the error I get when compile a project is in spanish "El sistema no puede hallar la ruta specificada" (It's the samea as "The system cannot find the path specified" if you don't know spanish). But if I compile a simple non-project file it's in English...

One other related question. Is your project in a direrctory called "asdf"?
Wayne
Yes, my project is in the same directory.

As you can see both path (of g++) are different...
I tried to use my own makefile but still this error!
Thanks again.
Why don't you read the advice given? Wayne said you should give a step-by-step account of how you uninstalle/reinstalled Dev-C++
Ok, ok...
1) I uninstall the program from the uninstaller in c:\Dev-Cpp folder... OK.
2) I find the folder c:\Dev-Cpp. It isn't in C:. OK
3) I do a search for any file that's contains devcpp,dev-cpp. (Cheking the box to find hidden files and folders too).

Thanks for translating there, nice touch to help a mono-linguisitc cretin like me. :)
Now, go to:

Save it in mycstuff as

Now, compile your project. I always do a "Rebuild All", it will ask you what to name your program, call it mymain.cpp. Post your log.

It's impossible that it works in this computer???
Sorry but I want that it works!!
"El sistema no puede hallar la ruta especificada"
Do you have the correct path set in Tools|Compiler options|Directories|Binaries ?
It should be c:\dev-cpp\bin.

OK, now, try this

I have encountered the same problem and I've only been using it for a day!
I have used the project builder and it built a Win32 App and the OpenGL App just fine.
Then I compiled my DirectX 9 App.
