EZ CPP 😎

This program streamlines the setup process for the following tasks:

  1. C Compiler (MinGW) Installation: This step, often considered the most challenging (for beginners), is fully automated❤️.
  2. Path Addition
  3. VS Code Extension Installation
  4. VS Code Settings Configuration
  5. VS Code Customised Keyboard Shortcuts
  6. User Snippets Installation

Note:

  • VS Code needs to be installed manually. Automating this step would increase the program size to over 400MB and potentially decrease stability.
  • An older version of VS Code is used to ensure compatibility with older versions of Windows, specifically Windows 7.

Installation Procedure (Download ↓)

  1. Extract the zip file
  2. Run the "install-c" file.
  3. During the VS Code installation, ensure all 5 checkboxes are selected.

That's it! Enjoy your streamlined setup. 😎

Changelog

(older versions are uploaded on mediafire it is not recommended to try those scripts)

Version 1.0

  • Resolved the 'looping' issue where Windows could not find minGW.exe. The minGW.exe file has been removed as some antivirus software were detecting it as a virus. The loop command has also been removed, so the program terminates after executing the given set of instructions, even if the installation fails.

Version 2.0

  • Updated VS Code.
  • Created a separate file for path setting.

Version 3.0

  • The script can now recognise the OS architecture and execute accordingly.
  • Updated 7-zip to version 22.01.
  • Updated VS Code to version 1.70 (also supports Windows 7).
  • Fully automated the process, eliminating the need to go to the C user snippets file (increased the program size by 10MB).
  • Removed the need for a separate file for path setting.
  • Added some important extensions for C/C++ (increased the program size by ~60MB).
  • Introduced a new theme: HackTheBox.
  • All operations are now handled by 7-zip, enhancing stability.
