Impossible to say. We need to see the error message.

Execute this C:\msys64\ucrt64\bin\gcc.exe -fdiagnostics-color=always -g "C:\Users\User\Desktop\New folder (2)\a.c" -o "C:\Users\User\Desktop\New folder (2)\a.exe" on the command line and share the error message.

My hypothesis is that one of GCC's subprograms is failing to start.

Does gcc a.c work?

Nah thats the problem. no new .exe is created. My university was showing on codeblocks. and codeblocks work. i just wanted to run in vs code....
