You seem to think that the compiler should know where to find an included header file based on the location of a previously included header file. That is not how it works. You need to specify to the compiler where to look for header files. In this case it seems you need to add 'C:/Users/21211433/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python313/include' to your include path in the command line with the -I option. So change the command line to something like C:\msys64\ucrt64\bin\g++.exe -fdiagnostics-color=always -g -IC:/Users/21211433/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python313/include python.cpp -o python.exe  and change your include statement to #include <python.h>  I've don't know what you are indicating with your include path above. I guess it is from your c_cpp_properties.json file, in which case it is irrelevant to this issue. The compiler does not use that file.
