Re: [Dev-C++] "unable to run program file"

[Ger L. <ge...@kn...>]

Confirmation of reported error message that obviously many new users
experience:

Installed Dev-C++ in C:\Programf\Dev-C++ to test this and then the
Hello World example compiled and ran without problems just as
with the installation in the default directory C:\Dev-C++ that I tested.

Installation in C:\Program Files\Dev-C++ produced the errors as posted
in this mailing list.

Greetings, Ger
