Eclipse C: Error Starting Process - Launching Failed Cannot Run Program - c

I've been trying to setup Eclipse for some C developing. I manage to get the example "hello world" program (provided by Eclipse) to compile, however I am unable to run or debug it. Since I am able to compile, I assume that the setup for the compiler is correct, I can also find the executable file in the workspace (which will not run manually).
While trying to run it through Eclipse I get the error "Error Starting Process - Launching Failed, Cannot run program".
While trying to debug it from Eclipse, I get the error "Error in final launch sequence: Failed to execute MI command: -exec-run" and "Error creating process %path to executable%(error 5)".
I've tried changing workspace to one that has no spaces and to reinstall the compiler (MinGW) with no success.
If anyone could provide some insight on the problem I'd be very grateful.
Edit: Attempting to run the executable returns the following error: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." This is strange as I am running it as an admin on my machine.
Furthermore, attempting to run the executable from an administrator permission level command prompt window returns "access is denied".

It turned out my anti-virus software was blocking the file's execution, disabled it and the program ran just fine.

Vs code shows an error when I use scanf function

I am learning C, but whenever I run a program I get this error:
a.exe failed to run: Access is denied
+CategoryInfo: Resources Unavailable:(:) [], Application failed exception
+ Fully qualified error is : nativecommandfailed
This error is because of McAfee (real-time scanning) but I don't know how to stop it.
I think it's asking me to put input when I use the scanf() function but it shows an error.
I think your antivirus software, McAfee, is preventing the execution of the .exe file for security purposes. Could you try disabling this feature? Additionally, please ensure that you have installed the C compiler for running your code in Visual Studio.

KDS -- Error in final launch sequence

I am using Kinetis Design Studio v 3.0 and am trying to launch a C application on my FRDM-K64 board. The project builds just fine; however, when I try to debug, I get this error:
Error in final launch sequence
Failed to execute MI command:
-exec-run
Error message from debugger back end:
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
I haven't a clue why this is happening. Other projects (such as the "bubble" example) launch just fine, and I am using basically the same launch configuration. I'm using Segger J-Link, although I tried using OpenOCD as well and got the same message. Any ideas of how to fix this?
I solved the problem--apparently my software needed to be updated. So if anyone is getting the same error, be sure you have tried checking for updates.

C auto start program on windows can't use files

I create a program to auto start with Windows, using registry:
CURRENT_USER\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
when Windows starts, the program starts too, the problem is that on auto start he can't manipulate files, when I open the program he can do everything.
Using GetLastError I can see the error code is 5: access denied, strerror return "access denied" and using FormatString the message is something like: "Error description 5: Access denied.
Can someone explain why is this hapening?
The program was starting from System32, so to create the files in the exe dir, is better use GetModuleFileName.

"meteor mongo" crashes with "Error: EINVAL, invalid argument"

I'm following the tutorial here and am stuck at "inserting parties from the console"... I can't run "meteor mongo"
Here is my output:

I'm using Cygwin on Windows 7 SP1, and have tried restarting to no use. In case this is relevant using control-C doesn't kill the meteor server, so I have been killing all the node.exe processes manually through the task manager instead.
This is my first time using meteor, and can't find this replicated anywhere.
** EDIT **
This works using the DOS prompt, but not the cygwin terminal
Thank you, and let me know if you need more info about anything!
At this time meteor on Windows can ONLY be used via the "cmd" prompt. Not even PowerShell will work. Nor does git-bash (in case you were wondering -- I tried that too).
Just do all your meteor commands from a "cmd" shell and you should avoid lots of little issues I think.
One nice thing -- when you want to build/deploy your app -- the nice little tool "demeteorizer" DOES work fine on cygwin/git-bash. :)

Execution of CodedUI tests on Remote machine without using the TestAgent/Controller

I have few Ordered tests which I execute locally using the VSTEST.CONSOLE.EXE In a batch file. I want to launch this batch file from remote system on about 15 VMs. I have the desktop active on all the VMs and user under which these test cases need to be executed are also same as the user logged in. When I try to execute the batch file using the PSExec it throws an error and dosent launch the tests the error shown is as below
C:\TestRunningFolder>vstest.console.exe C:\BuildsFolder\BVTTests.orderedtest /Settings:C:\BuildsFolder\QuestCodedUI.testsettings /Logger:trx
Microsoft (R) Test Execution Command Line Tool Version 12.0.30723.0

starting test execution, please wait...
Warning: Warning: Test Run deployment issue: The assembly or module 'UiaComWrapp

exited unexpectedly.
Error: Failed to queue test run 'testuser#RemoteMachine 2015-05-14 15:57:49':
Unable to start the agent process.
Please let me know how can I execute the CodedUI tests on remote machine without using the TestAgent/Controller. Is it possible Via WMI ?. Anyone tried and succeeded please let me know.
Update : I was able to get past this issue by copying the required files in the folder. Now I am trying to launch the CodedUI tests using the PSExec.exe on remote system. I have remote desktop active and when I try to launch the batch file using the command line and it just gives me a message as shown below. PSEXEC.EXE \RemoteMachinename -i "c\users\testuser\desktop\Runtests.bat" when I do that it returns with error code 1 and tests are not started yet. I tried searching for solution I couldn't find anything that is usefull.
For the above mentioned scenario, please copy all the dependency dll (eg : Microsoft.Visualstudio.Qualitytools.CodeduiTest etc.) to the folder where your build dll (projectname.dll) file is copied. Make sure that you are using correct version of vstest that supports the version of the VS you are using. For example, if your code is builded using VS 2015, you have to use vstest.console.exe that comes with Test Agent 2015/Test Agent 2013 Update 5. This trick worked for me. Please let me know whether this works for you. Regards.
