Error: Clion 2020.2 / The C compiler is not able to compile a simple test program
Clion 2020.2 Build #CL-202.6397.106
Windows 10 64 bits
Sorry, I don't speak fluent English.
Please be patient and help me!

I installed the latest version of MinGW and Clion.
When starting any new project after installation, the following message appear...
code:
C language
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
printf("Hello, World!\n");
return 0;
}

Hello!
It's not a CLion's problem, but a problem with using CMake + MinGW - they don't support non-latin symbols.
To solve the problem please do the following:
1. Create temp folder in location which path doesn't include non-latin symbols (for example, `C:\tmp`).
2. In CLion menu select `Help | Edit Custom VM options...`.
3. In the opened file add this line: `-Djava.io.tmpdir=<path_to_temp_folder>` (for example, `-Djava.io.tmpdir=C:/tmp`).
4. In the menu do `File | Save All`.
5. Restart CLion.
Also if path to your project contains non-latin symbols, please move the CMake generation directory to a path that doesn't contain such characters (either via `File | Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | CMake | Generation path`, or just put the project itself to other location).
That worked!
