No such file or directorycollect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Question

I am getting this error; I tried to resolve it but I was not able to. To check the issue, I have first tried it in VS-CODE then on DEV-CPP but both show the same error which is basically not regarding my program. But I am getting that:

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    cout<<"Running";
    return 0;
}

That's the error:

cannot open output file newFile.exe: No such file or directorycollect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status

All of my old programs which were running showing the same issue.

Answer 1

Today I have resolved this problem by resetting my PC. If there is another way, please tell me. I had done so because None of my program was running neither Java nor CPP.
