Try uninstalling and reinstalling your compiler.

As Xion18 said below, you simply forgot the hash symbol before your include statement. I assumed this was a copy paste error.

You forgot # before include and when you run it the screen will show up a bit and then disappear to stop this. My advice is to use system('pause'); and return 0; after your cout << "Hello";. Don't use system('pause') later on its not really great but it just a start for you.

If you know it's not good to use why are you recommending it? Just link to this post:
