How can I run .exe files which I created in Turbo C++ compiler on my Window 8 PC?

Answer 1

Universities still does sometimes.

Answer 2

To update the turbo c compiler you must have permission to uninstall the existing compiler and manually install the new one.
I have no personal experience to this site but I would probably use this place to manage this:
https://turboc.codeplex.com

A virtual machine is an operating system or application-environment that is installed on software, which imitates dedicated hardware. The end user has the same experience on a virtual machine as they would have on dedicated hardware.

A VM is a must-have for any professional programmer whrn running untested code in vulnerable environment. A virtual machine is often used to analyze program behavioural pattern, such as: malicious software in security tests etc.

Hope this helped you out. Keep keeping me updated. :) Gosh speed.

Answer 3

right-click the .exe file and click on properties at the bottom. go to compatibility and pick an older operative system.

this adapts it to run in that version. a neat trick any professional programmer must know. :)

Hope this helped you on your quest.

Answer 4

Hmm, have you any chance of updating the compiler? Today there are still updated turbo c compilers for modern computers.

Hope this helped.

Dr.

Answer 5

If an update is not an option you can consider to run your codes on a virtual machine or in a server-side environment. either one should work but might require a bit more work to setup.
Keep me updated.

Answer 6

Happy to see you again, Gulshan Bhadoria.

Did you try to reinstall the turbo c compiler?
What went wrong?

To answer your question:
Yes, from your screen, it is just an extra window.
Furthermore...
A Virtual Machine is sometimes referred to a "sandbox", which describes it fairly well. It has many valuable applications but the most unique one is that
It look and acts exactly like a computer, only that it isn't.

Experiment:
If you release an aggressive malware (category: virus) to a VM it will act exactly like a computer but it does not damage it and a quick reboot resets everything to square one. In IT-corporations, especially in the security department, a logger sometime is used in a VM to trace the progress of this very experiment.

And yes, it works for your request as well.

Answer 8

Turbo C++ is very old at the moment. Try using Code Blocks or other IDE

Answer 9

@The PGDeveloper but the problem is that Turbo C++ is in use in our university lab therefore I have to use that at home.

Answer 10

Who uses turbo C++. They are 8 bit compilers. Are they even supported

Answer 11

No wonder... Education ruins us all

Answer 12

I have it in university lab therefore I use it at my home

Answer 13

Okay... Let's just get it right. Just because everyone does it, you don't have to. Install GCC, or CLion, or Eclipse for C

Answer 14

The compilers you mentioned here do use the line as 'using namespace std' ?

Answer 15

The compatibility idea is not working

Answer 16

Hey thanks Dr. Do you mean that virtual machine is an alternative window ?

Answer 18

Thanks Dr.
