My recommendation is to get something like NotepadAtom instead of Notepad.
I would use Visual Studio 2015 Community as well now that there is a free version, but I have Windows XP still, I had another small netbook with Win 7 but it broke somewhere near the end of last year, and I can't get the free Windows 10.
Edit: And if that doesn't work, try using Geany.

C is known for being a fad language 
the same guy also discourages Java earlier in the topic
though so I can not really guarantee that's the reason..
Edit: As per Znapi, we expect command lines..

C is amazing! You get nearly full control over memory and how things work. Why are you using an IDE for C though?What's wrong though? Is it useless?Why are you using C though? I currently using NetBeans for C

What if you do something wrong in C though? C is amazing! You get nearly full control over memory and how things work. Why are you using an IDE for C though?

In C if something goes wrong, something could also drastically go wrong. Plus, it's a horrible first language because…
- Static typing
- It's hard to use libraries
- It's hard to learn and code in
- Pointers (nuff said)
- It's obsolete and inconvenient (sorry gtoal!)

I'm not saying that C is a bad programming language, it's just a bad one for beginners. You have to focus on memory management, getting everything to load, and linking/compiling. If you use a language like Python, Ruby, or JavaScript, you can focus on the programming techniques and algorithms instead of learning to print strings and telling the length of a string.Tell me what a GOOD programming language is then.But it's still inconvenientdrastically go wrong.
