You can use whatever editor you like, even Windows's own one (it's
actually called Notepad). It really doesn't matter.

The problem about the file not being found may be due to some
peculiarity with Notepad: it automatically adds '.txt' to the
filename, even if you already gave some other extension, i.e. you'll
get 'hello.cc.txt' instead of 'hello.cc'. To get around that, you'll
have to type quotes around the filename, in the file dialog.

Or you may just have forgotten to change directory to where you stored
your file, before calling 'gcc'.

You may want to try out 'RHIDE', the editor-with-tools that was
designed for and written with DJGPP.
