Your launch file is for java script code and not for C/C++.
Please follow the instructions on Microsoft's site for VS Code:
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/cpp/config-msvc
or in your case:
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/cpp/config-mingw
Your launch.json file should look something like this:
{
"tasks": [
{
"type": "cppbuild",
"label": "C/C++: g++.exe build active file",
"command": "C:\\msys64\\mingw64\\bin\\g++.exe",
"args": [
"-fdiagnostics-color=always",
"-g",
"${file}",
"-o",
"${fileDirname}\\${fileBasenameNoExtension}.exe"
],
"options": {
"cwd": "${fileDirname}"
},
"problemMatcher": ["$gcc"],
"group": {
"kind": "build",
"isDefault": true
},
"detail": "Task generated by Debugger."
}
],
"version": "2.0.0"
}
