Binary not found problem in Eclipse IDE

Hello, I recently downloaded Eclipse IDE for c++ programming and at the very first run I found this error message. ❌Launch failed. Binary not found. Although I tried some solutions from the internet, it still appears on my screen. Please share if you have any kind of solution for this problem. Thank you.

Don’t use Eclipse for C++. It’s good for Java, but for C++, use Visual Studio on Windows or xCode on Mac.

@Full Gamer Actually it's a portable version. There's no option to install it. I tried installing Cygwin compiler and adding its directory to the path. But it's still not working.
