Bas code has to be compiled to run. It runs through a conversion process to C and the exe made from that.
I haven't looked at that menu carefully for ages, I can see why you might think QB64pe is still an Interpreter from that but it's not. I have no idea why it would say No exe, that's silly. The first thing it says below is "Creating EXE file..." when you choose that option, crazy!
Qb64 has been compiled since day 1 of it's existence independent of DOS.
So welcome to the forum, anything else we can't help you with
BTW I am not liking the slow typing of my code and the double click needed of an already selected item of version 3.14.1 it's very distracting, we are going backwards in progress.
