I downloaded the DMD Windows compiler, installed it in the
default directory, added its location to the system path,
restarted my computer and wrote a sample hello, world program,
and it won't compile; instead it says Error: cannot read file
hello.d. My computer is 64-bit, if that matters at

Are you in the same directory as your hello.d? It seems like
you're not giving the compiler correct path to your file.
My file was located on my desktop, and my current directory was
the desktop, but dmd hello.d gave me an error. Is that what you
mean?

Sorry about that last comment. Apparently I installed it
correctly and everything, it's just that Notepad++ saves files as
.txt unless you surround the file name and extension in quotes,
like so: hello.d Thanks a lot for the help.
