I can't get passed this error on the console, my code is exactly the same as in the video.

I've saved my work.

Have you opened the Program.cs file in the file explorer? It is on the left of the screen, when you open workspaces for the first time it does not open the Program.cs file it opens a welcome.md file.

Thought I would post in case other have this issue. It might be because it is case sensitive. I was entering in mcs program.cs instead of mcs Program.cs
