To set the executor path for the most common programming languages on your computer, check File / Preferences / Settings and open the Workspace Settings tab as shown here (see more at User and Workspace Settings). See all keyboard shortcuts at Windows, macOS and Linux.Īs described in the Code-Runner marketplace description, the configuration must know, where to find the runtime executor.
