can't run c++ codes in vs code

Question

I watched a bunch of videos on how to run c++ codes in vs code but none of them helped me. I have tried doing a bunch of things like reinstalling vs code, changing task.json and launch.json file, reinstalling mingw files and all that and I still cant run any c++ program and I dont know what seems to be the problem. It would be great if anyone could help me.
here's a simple helloworld program for reference

Answer 1

It seems that it's running fine, just you are not pausing the program to be able to see the output.

On the line after cout << "Hello World"; put cin.get();

Answer 2

Answer 3
