preface

Today, when I was wandering in the code world, a QQ message suddenly brought me back to reality. My junior student reported a strange error when installing VC code’s C/C ++, “#include error detected, please update includepath”.

The solution

After a long time of agonizing, I found that GCC software was not installed on a newly installed Windows system, leading to the failure to find the C/C ++ plug-in of VScode. After installing GCC software, the error goes away. Selected here in the installation of MinGW, below is the installation process of MinGW
