This will happen if you accidentally saved the file name as "hello.c " (with a space following the c).

First, the icon for hello.c in the file tree shows as a text file. It should show as a C file like this:

Second, there is no C syntax highlighting in the hello.c window.

Suggest you File > Save As hello.c (be careful to type it exactly). You should then see two "hello.c" files in the file tree.

Right-click -> delete the hello.c that shows with the text icon. It will ask a confirmation message, and close the open editor pane. Double click on hello.c (with the C icon). It will open in the editor window, and now you should be able to compile.

I'm having the same problem, but the file is saved correctly. I'm still getting "no such files or directory". Any help?
