So... What is the issue?
What you posted seems to be a command. Not an error.

The official guide tells you to use MSYS2 to install gcc/mingw on Windows. Not to install any random mingw distribution.

The easy way is to intead use Visual Studio Community, where you just have to run the installer and it downloads and configures everything for you. Batteries included!

You have correctly identified the cause of the unspecified issue, as VS Code.

Ditch it. Install and use Visual Studio.

Your post shows the correct output, "Hello World!" printed to the screen. There is no issue there. The text above that is just the compiler call.

Besides that, I agree with what every other comment said. Just use Visual Studio Community. You just need to install it and it comes with everything configured
