Hi Rik,

Looking at your provided TeXworks information (below),

> pdfTeX location : not found

... It appears you do not have a *TeX related Typesetting system installed
or set up yet?

As TeXworks is the editor and controller for some kind of LaTeX setup, but
does not itself do the Typesetting—it needs one installed.

Check under Help on the TeXworks menu, or if necessary you can get a help
file .pdf or html version from:

https://github.com/TeXworks/manual/releases

Current direct .pdf link...

https://github.com/TeXworks/manual/releases/download/2024-02-09/TeXworks-manual-en.pdf

However you access the Help, have a look under Chapter 3. - First steps.

There you will find some advice for obtaining the necessary *TeX related
Typesetting system.

Don't hesitate to get back here if you need any further help.

Kind regards,
Paul
