Compile error - unknown device type *** Locked - pirate

Hello guys, I'm trying to compile a code that usually works with different pics, usually family 18. It's a small code and I decided to transfer it to a 12f pic.

The error is in the first line: Unknown device type "pic12f1822.h"

Hi,

You almost certainly will need to update your compiler version. Support for a
particular chip comes in the form of the supplied .h file, and support
internally in the compiler itself. If you did not receive the 12f1822.h file with
your compiler, you can be assured it's not supported in your version.

BTW, where did you download the .h file?

The link you point to is not an official CCS download website. Besides that, it is also a very, very, old version of the compiler with a lot of problems. The v4 compiler only started to work as expected again around v4.075
Save everybody a lot of time and get yourself a newer compiler version.

Please note that many of the pirated versions on the internet have a suspicious larger file size than my original downloaded version. You'll be installing some malicious software next to the compiler...

If you have to search for a newer version it will be a pirated version.

The only place you need to look is the CCS website!
