You don’t provide any arguments to g++.exe, the command line even lacks the path to your source file. How should the compiler know what to do?
Go figure out the required compiler options for your project and read thoroughly the documentation of NppExec, there you can find all information needed.

How would you do it from the command-line, without Notepad++? Ie, how would you compile the program if you used some other text editor for the source code, or had just downloaded it?
This is not a compiler forum, or a programming forum. If you tell us how you would compile and run the program without Notepad++, we can help you translate that into how to do it inside Notepad++. But without that, you’re asking us why you cannot bake your cookies.

cmd /c “$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY) \a.exe”Seems like you may just be missing the file to compile:
npp_save cd $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY) C:\MinGW\bin\g++ "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)" cmd /c “$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY) \a.exe”
