This maybe because the c compiler is designed to work in linux.I had this problem too and to fix it go to tools and select compiler options.In the box click on programs. Now you will see a tab with gcc and make and the respective path to it.Edit the gcc and make path to use mingw32-c.exe and mingw32-make.exe respectively.Now it will work. The reason was that you were using compilers built. Apr 18, 2016 This feature is not available right now. Please try again later.

I use Dev-C++ since 3 month ago; in the 70th I programmed in Fortran;

e.g.: the day before yesterday I got the following message from Dev-C++:
My second question to you: * h o w to enable (these) options at my installed and running actual mingw compiler as part of Dev-C++ IDE ?
Thank you in advance for your time,

Dev C++ Non Mi Fa Compilare
Well, the answer to your problem (but not to your question) is to change your IDE. Dev-C++ is far too old to support C++11. The MinGW GCC version that ships with Dev-C++ is version 3.4.2, which is really old. Decent support for C++11 starts roughly from 4.6.0, but since it is still experimental, the newer the better. Currently, you can get 4.7.1 version through '>TDM-GCC ports. I recommend switching to '>CodeBlocks, which you can download as an installer that includes TDM-GCC 4.7.1. That should allow you to have decent C++11 support.
Dev C++ Non Compilation
As for setting compiler options, you typically have to navigate the 'Build Configuration' or 'Project Properties' or similar panels. Usually, you will find a place to put 'custom compiler options' where you can place the exact command-line compiler option (like
-std=c++11
), that is, if you can't find a checkbox for the particular option you need.
