I am sure there is an answer out there for this but I cannot track it down.
code is simply
#include <iostream>
int main(){
std::cout << "hello world";
return 0;
}
Visual Studio runs the programs fine however when trying to compile from cmd

Solved... issue was related to incorrect PATH variables
The problem was that C:\Program Files (x86)\Codeblocks\bin existed above C:\msys64\usr\bin in the system variables, so despite having updated g the system continued to look at the ancient version of g before the up to date version.
CodePudding user response：
If your program is working with Visual Studio IDE, you can compile it using VS Developer command prompt.
Please click the Start Menu, select "Developer Command Prompt for VS 2022" it will open a terminal window, then navigate to the directory where your source code is located and run the following command
cl /EHsc test.cpp # to compile the pogram
test.exe # to run the program
