I installed Code::Blocks on Windows 10 and am trying to use this compiler:

When I open Code::Blocks, I get a gcc compiler not found error. I followed these instructions:

no help. I checked my environmental path and everything looks right. I opened a command window and typed "gcc" and got a "gcc: fatal error: no input files. GCC terminated" error, telling me the compiler is working. I am able to compile from the command line. Any ideas?
What is the path to the GCC Compiler?
Did you configure Code::Blocks to use that path?
Remember C::B adds the bin folder so do not include it in the path!
Verify the tools use the same names as in Code::Blocks (Change the C::B setting to match your compiler)

Thanks for the help. I used the browse function [...] in the toolchains executables tab to browse to the mingw folder. I took screen shots of the settings in Code::Blocks and the path to the mingw folder in Windows but the files are too large to attach. Everything looks right to me.
If you refuse to answer questions, there is no way to help you.

The path to the compiler is "C:\ MINGW\i686-8.1.0-posix-dwarf-rt-v6_rev\mingw32." The compiler is set as GNU GCC compiler.
Per these instructions: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/641797/codeblocks-environment-error/, under the settings tab, selecting the compiler option and looking under the toolchains tab, Code::Blocks should set the path to the compiler automatically. The autoconfigure function does not find the path. The attached file shows the settings in Code::Blocks. Also per the instructions, the path can be manually and I used the browse key to set the path. Attached is a screenshot. Is there another way to set the compiler other than under the toolchains executables tab?
What are the filenames for the C and C++ compilers?

I see what you are saying. I went into the bin folder under the mingw32 directory and manually selected the proper files. Attached is a screenshot with the corrected settings, for future generations. Thanks.
So, you changed your mind about what compiler you are going to use.
