Answer 1

Years back, the no BS IDE would be Dev-C++ 5.11. My university uses it as the standard IDE for C++. CodeBlocks came in second.

I'm now hooked to Jetbrains products, so I'm using CLion.

I would then become a Linux geek and just use gedit with a nice theme.

Answer 2

Visual Studio definitely, you won't find any better IDE (in my opinion).

Answer 3

Visual Studio in full version is not a cheap piece of software however it's perfect.

Answer 4

code::blocks is fine

the is probably because you might have deleted the .o file form it's place which is necessary to get .exe file to run the program

Answer 5

Does Visual studio install the COMPILERS itself?

Answer 6

Microsoft compilers are part of Visual Studio but you will also need SDK (but I think that installer will offer download).
But Microsoft compilers are also available standalone and thus they can be use with other IDE not just VS.
