That's nothing to do with us. You just need to find your files and put them all in the same place so that it can compile them properly.

You've probably told the IDE the files are in specific locations and it's trying to fetch them from those locations, but you've moved them.
Make a new project with all the files in the same directory.

This is you can see is to do with spaces in pathnames/directory names/filenames.

c:\documents and settings\admin\Desktop\c++ Examples by CMR\Exercises\countWords.cpp

This can be a problem with older programs and also when passing parameters on the commandline) because
it end up being split at the spaces.

When you have spaces , try enclosing the pathname in double quotes

"c:\documents and settings\admin\Desktop\c++ Examples by CMR\Exercises\countWords.cpp"
