when you say the folder DEV C++, is that the thing you get when you get a compiler?
Uh... it doesn't have to be the Dev-Cpp folder, it can be anywhere. But yes, the folder itself is created when you install the program.

Ok one question i feel stupid now. I use Bloodshed Dev-C++ and i thought that was the compiler cause u write the code in it and hit the compile button. Do i still need that extra compiler because when i do try to compile it says cant run program?(and all the code is right)
Dev-Cpp is the IDE. It goes over the compiler, which is the G++ (or GCC). They both come with Dev-Cpp and are installed along with the IDE. If your project isn't compiling, try exiting Dev-Cpp and restarting, then compiling again. It's happened to me once or twice, when a program crashed, that I can't recompile it. Just restart and it should work out.
